When I resize the window, the emacs tooltip says that it's 89x25. 
xwininfo says that it's 752x504 pixels. The characters displayed in the 
window are the same size as when I run 28.2. See the attached screenshot.

When I use the same init file with emacs 28.2, the emacs tooltip also 
says 89x25, but xwininfo reports that it is 1215x824 pixels

I'm using gtk+, but not pgtk. The window manager is XFCE.
