It is unfortunate that no one yet paid attention to the Calendar's
treatment of the wide-screen configuration.  Since now we have
a new smart window splitting, it produces very bad results on such
configurations - `M-x calendar' displays an ugly 70-line window
instead of a narrow 7-line window that fits nicely to the contents
of the Calendar buffer.  That's because assumptions about the
behaviour of `display-buffer' in `calendar-basic-setup' and
`calendar-generate-window' are now invalid.
