I just tested it, and it works. However I've always wondered, is there 
a place in .emacs file, which is guaranteed to be executed before a 
window is created? I may be mistaken, but it looks to me like Emacs 
tries to create window almost immediately on start, and that the (setq 
frame-resize-pixelwise t) line at the beginning of the config being 
executed before window is created is pure luck.
