bug#22891: 25.0.92; set-fringe-mode with left fringe 0 breaks window wid


From: martin rudalics
Subject: bug#22891: 25.0.92; set-fringe-mode with left fringe 0 breaks window width calculations on Mac OS (again)

> The Emacs pretest released earlier today has a window width

> 2. Execute this Elisp: (set-fringe-mode '(0 . 7))
> 3. Execute M-x ansi-term and select /bin/zsh as your shell.
> 4. Resize the frame to make it slightly wider (I used the mouse to
> make the frame one character wider).
> 5. Run 'ls' in the shell. Notice the spurious % characters printed

Sorry, this mail ended up in the wrong folder so it went by unnoticed
for such long time.  I have no idea which change could have caused this.
Could you please try to bisect to find the offending commit?

Thanks, martin
