bug#3233: 23.0.93; [NS] Regression in x-display-pixel-width

Why not use `frame' directly?  The `display' frame parameter is
fundamentally specific to X11 (although we kinds of try to make Emacs
pretend that it also exists under other GUIs).

The "display" you pass is just some string.  So "right" way would be to
pass the corresponding terminal (i.e. (frame-terminal frame)), but
most/all the functions that operate on terminals accept frames as well
(since terminal object were only introduced in Emacs-23 as pat of the
multi-tty code, so frames were previously the canonical way to refer to
a display).
