There seems to be no way other than using your own command.
How about this?

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(setq my-list-buffers-window-height 16)

(defun my-list-buffers (&optional files-only)
  (interactive "P")
  (let ((buffer (list-buffers-noselect files-only)))
    (display-buffer buffer)
    (enlarge-window (max (- (window-height (get-buffer-window buffer))
			    my-list-buffers-window-height)
			 (- window-min-height (window-height))))))

(substitute-key-definition 'list-buffers 'my-list-buffers global-map)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Otherwise, you can use the `special-display-buffer-names'
variable if you'd like to pop up a frame.  For example:

(add-to-list 'special-display-buffer-names
	     '("*Buffer List*" (height . 16) (width . 80)))
