In fact, there's already an inconsistency here. The documentation of
frame-pixel-height says:

   With the Motif or Lucid toolkits, it also includes the tool bar
   (but not the menu bar).

However, if I measure the height on my screen, it is 608 pixels in
total, i.e. including _both_ the tool bar and the menu bar. (I see the
same inconsistency if configured --with-x-toolkit=lucid, BTW.)

Is it an error in the code or in the documentation?

This value is definitely wrong. Measured height is only 572 pixels.
