Change default-frame-alist and menu/tool-bar-mode interaction (Bug#2249). Don't add entries for `menu-bar-lines' and `tool-bar-lines' to `default-frame-alist' and `initial-frame-alist' at startup. Instead, use X resources to update the `menu-bar-mode' and `tool-bar-mode' variables at startup, and use them as defaults during frame creation. * lisp/frame.el (frame-notice-user-settings): Don't change default-frame-alist based on menu-bar-mode and tool-bar-mode, or vice versa. * lisp/menu-bar.el (menu-bar-mode): * lisp/tool-bar.el (tool-bar-mode): Don't change default-frame-alist. Set init-value to t. * lisp/startup.el (command-line): Use X resources to set the value of menu-bar-mode and tool-bar-mode, before calling frame-initialize. * src/frame.c (Vmenu_bar_mode, Vtool_bar_mode): New vars. * src/w32fns.c (Fx_create_frame): * src/nsfns.m (Fx_create_frame): Likewise. * src/xfns.c (Fx_create_frame): Don't consult X resouces when setting menu-bar-lines and tool-bar-lines. Use menu-bar-mode and tool-bar-mode, which are now set using these X resources at startup, to determine the defaults.

If you think you may have found a bug in GNU Emacs, please
read the Bugs section of the Emacs manual for advice on
(1) how to tell when to report a bug, and
(2) how to write a useful bug report and what information
it needs to have.

There are three ways to read the Bugs section.

(1) In a printed copy of the Emacs manual.
You can order one from the Free Software Foundation;
see the file etc/ORDERS.  But if you don't have a copy on
hand and you think you have found a bug, you shouldn't wait
to get a printed manual; you should read the section right away
as described below.

(2) With Info.  Start Emacs, do C-h i to enter Info,
then m Emacs RET to get to the Emacs manual, then m Bugs RET
to get to the section on bugs.  Or use standalone Info in
a like manner.  (Standalone Info is part of the Texinfo distribution,
not part of the Emacs distribution.)

(3) By hand.  Do
    cat info/emacs* | more "+/^File: emacs,  Node: Bugs,"

Please first check the file etc/PROBLEMS (e.g. with C-h C-p in Emacs) to
make sure it isn't a known issue.
