Note that it is never a bug to not split a window in any of these
cases.  Making a new frame is the only way out when (1) existing
windows are too small to get split and (2) windows cannot be reused
because they are dedicated or 'inhibit-same-window' is set.  And the
choice to not split a window when it's too small is usually up to the
user and applications just have to respect it.
