There appears to be a change to `window-min-size' that gives an erroneously large minimum horizontal window size when the combined size of window margins exceed that of the body text, e.g. in a frame 80 columns wide, with left margin 20 columns and right margin 20 columns, would return a minimum horizontal size of 42, when body text would be 40. This causes `split-window-right' to fail.

To reproduce:

1. emacs -Q
2. in a frame 80 columns wide...
3. M-: (set-window-margins nil 20 20)
4. C-x 3
    => "Window #<window 1 on *scratch*> too small for splitting (2)"
5. M-: (window-min-size nil t)
    => 42

Expected results:

Window should split horizontally. Minimum window width should not be dictated by margin width.

Actual results:

Margin width dictates minimum window width and prevents window splitting.
