PATCH: Constrained sizing support in -multiwindow mode

[Harold L Hunt II]

Earle,

This is great!  Just yesterday, while investigating the crashing upon 
copying a large amount of text, I was resizing xterm to make it really 
large and noticed that the window quite often got a size that chopped 
off the last line of text or left a gap after the last line of text.  I 
wondered if it had something to do with hints... sure enough, it did :)

Thanks for the patch,

Harold
