Emacs-trunk half window?

[Angelo Graziosi]

When I run the build of current trunk, rev. 99386, Emacs starts with a 
window of 19 lines instead of 35, as it did until the last build, on 
2010.01.20.

This happens on GNU/Linux Kubuntu 9.10 with the following .Xdefaults:

------------------------
Emacs.FontBackend:      xft
Emacs.font:            Monospace 13
Emacs.geometry:         -0+0

! ---------[ xft ] ---------
Xft*antialias:          true
Xft*autohint:           true
------------------------

In the above, the line which causes this 'half window' is:

Emacs.font:            Monospace 13

Removing it, Emacs starts with a 'full' window of 38 lines, but with 
Monospace 12 and not 13, as I would. Setting '13', manually, with 
'Options | Set Default Font' still have 38 lines.

Is this a regression or a new behavior? In this last case, how I can set 
'Monospace 13' in .Xdefaults?

I need the above .Xdefaults since November 2009. Indeed, as you 
remember, that time there was a thread closed with [*]. Before I never 
had .Xdefault on K-9.10. (Really in [*] I reported 'Monospace 12', but 
'12' was too small, so I changed to '13', and that was fine).


Ciao,
Angelo.
