Indeed.  I was too optimistic.  The window's buffer is apparently
hard-coded into the iterator in so many ways that this can't be fixed
reasonably.  Just look for all the it->object = it->w->contents
assignments.  It's sheer luck that this didn't crash more seriously.

I have to back out my change, sorry.  And if you want to
use `window-text-pixel-size' you'll have to do the saving stuff I
proposed earlier.

Thanks for catching this, martin
