[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

I believe `(window-body-height)` does not account for non-zero
`line-spacing` amounts. This causes `(window-body-height)` in graphical
Emacs to report values larger than the number of lines of text that can
render on the screen.

This affects programs like vterm.el and others that rely on
`(window-body-height)`. In my particular case, when I ran `man` and `less`
from vterm.el, it rendered things above the top "fold" of the screen.

When I tried to reproduce these issues with `emacs -nw`, everything was
fine. I imagine this is because `emacs -nw` disregards `line-spacing`.

I'm happy to share more information to help someone reproduce this issue.
