What was your previous version of Emacs?

What happens if you invoke "emacs -q" (lowercase 'q')? Do you see the
splash screen with the GNU image?
> I did, however, make a discovery later after reporting the problem: When

> address ("192.168.0.103:0"), the window opens normally and doesn't shrink
> after opening.
Later you wrote (again, in a private email):
> I take back the discovery; It's back to shrinking the window this morning
> even with DISPLAY set to the actual address.
