I never doubted that it works correctly (IIRC Michael did).  But from
what you tell above it's obvious that you tried with customizations of
the initial frame size which cause 'split-window-sensibly' to prefer a
horizontal split over a vertical one.  Right?  If so, then since most
users of Emacs do not have such customizations, your invocation hardly
qualifies as of the emacs -Q type.
