I now pushed everything to master.  It's been pretty difficult to fix
the various builds.  I found a number of bugs that earlier were swept
under the lines/columns carpets.

There is one major change: Instead of

(width . 200.0)

you have to use

(width . (text-pixels . 200))

to spefify that a frame should be 200 pixels wide.  Similarly for
height.  Please report any problems you find.

Thanks, martin
