In fact it was originally reported in that case, as Emacs was started
by 'emacs -Q', and by default 'frame-resize-pixelwise' is 'nil'.

Yes, I do, as described here [0].

Nope, I presume I do in all frames whose height is not an integral
multiple of the default character size.

No, I don't.

It works the same: corrupted mode-line for the upper window.
