The size of the initial frame has changed:

On GNU Emacs 22.3.1 (i386-apple-darwin8.11.1, Carbon Version 1.6.0),
frame-height returns 40 and frame-width returns 80.

On GNU Emacs 23.2.1 (i386-apple-darwin8.11.1, NS apple-appkit-824.48),
frame-height returns 34 and frame-width returns 80.

Both executables started with -Q, no .Xresources or .Xdefaults files.

I think I know how to fix it -- add (height . 40) to initial-frame-alist
in my .emacs -- but what is the root cause of this change?

Now use-fancy-splash-screens-p returns nil in Emacs 23 whereas it returned t
in Emacs 22, because (a) the frame height has decreased from 40 to 34 and (b)
the image-height has increased from 13.5625 to 14.4667. So the frame height
minus 1 (= 33) is no longer greater than the sum of the image height plus 19
(= 33.4667).
