That depends on what you mean with "this".

It would be nice if we could just fix ther leftover spaces. But I think it is
too long in to pretest to fix this. You have to first find all leftover spaces
(i.e. under/between scroll bars, minibuffer, fringe) in all cases (font size
not a multiple of frame size, fullscreen, and so on) and in all configurations
(lucid, Gtk, just X, motif, with or without native scrollbars, with or without
Xaw3d scrollbars).
And then for different environments, some redraw errors only appears with XFCE,
some with Gnome-shell.
