Thanks.

After thinking some more about this, I think we should leave the
frame.el part of 6c5ddf0e0b alone, but augment it with the fboundp
test, such that on TTY frames the tab bar would be included in the
frame's inner height, like the menu bar is.  This is also consistent
with what happens on TTY frames in a build with X: tab-bar-height
returns zero.

Basil, can you please install such a change on the emacs-27 branch?  I
will then make another RC.
