Subject: 23.0.60; x-show-tip can't display border correctly.

Below bug can reproduce with "emacs -Q".

Use function `x-show-tip' will show tooltip window with information.
And default will display border around tooltip window.

Now this have two bug with `x-show-tip'.

1> `x-show-tip' can display border:
In file `tooltip.el.gz' have function `tooltip-show', example i add
(setq params (tooltip-set-param parmas 'border-width 1)) before
before,

245   ...
246   (x-show-tip (propertize text 'face 'tooltip)
247   ...

`x-show-tip' should display border, but it won't display border.

You can reproduce this bug with (tooltip-show "bug report").

And if you want to see effect of tooltip border.

Just replace like below:

246       (x-show-tip (propertize text 'face 'tooltip)
247                             (selected-frame)
248 ---                         params
248 +++                         tooltip-frame-parameters
249                             tooltip-hide-delay
250                             tooltip-x-offset
251                             tooltip-y-offset)

And then eval (tooltip-show "display border"), you will find 
tooltip display with border.
Above change just show border with tooltip, not patch.

2> Can't display border completed.
If change above code, you will get tooltip with border.
But when your *show text* to `tooltip-show' is too width, the *right border* can't display,
You can reproduce this with (tooltip-show "This line is too width width width width width width width width width width width width width...")
then you can find right border can't display correctly.
Alike, if *show text* is too height *bottom border* can't display correctly.

Thank you very much!
