In addition we have the problem that `split-height-threshold' can be now
nil in

            ((and (> (window-height (setq w2 (get-largest-window)))
                     split-height-threshold)

I cannot reproduce that here.  That is, marking in a dired buffer more
files than there fit on the frame and typing C gives me a single-window
frame here with some files not shown - no error.
