Subject: Re: bug#17046: 24.3.50; On startup emacs frame has no minibuffer or windows decorations

Interesting. There aren't that many differences between the frames.
The possibly significant ones:

(environment)
(height . 36)
(horizontall-scroll-bars . t)
(left . 896)
(window-system . x)

vs.

(height . 30)
(left . 0)

So I'd suggest adding them (the ones in the first group) one by one to
your bug17046.el, and repeat the tests. Comment out the `let' from the
previous message, there's no need to report the frame parameters now,
just whether some case fails / works when previously it would've
worked / failed instead.

Let's hope we find something that can explain the different behavior.
