Fw: Maximize frame does not work correctly in .emacs on MS Windows withCVS Emacs

[Lennart Borgman]

I have sent this to Emacs Devel first, but so far no response. I have also
noticed that there is a similar bug if you try to use --fullscreen when
starting Emacs. However in this case the upper right corner icon is not the
"maximized" icon, but the "normal size" icon. The window size is not normal.
It looks like the same size I see below. (Height is not full screen.)
