Thanks for reporting this.

This regression seems to be a side-effect of the change I made in 1.17.1-5.

If you would like to try it, I made a snapshot which hopefully fixes 
this without breaking anything else, but when working on this code I 
always get the feeling that something else is going to unravel when I 
pull on one of the loose ends :)

Hmmm.... I think that the size of the emacs window is (or at least, 
should be) constrained so it can only change by a whole character?

Can you give a bit more detail e.g. what version you were using 
previously, the geometry you are requesting and the actual size of the 
window as reported by xwininfo?
