This is not a complete report from emacs -Q. I don't have the time
for that right now. But this should help. I tried Emacs 23 with my
normal code (not emacs -Q). 
 
Summary: Frame parameters are really messed up.
 
I've included two listings here: (1) the frame parameters from a Dired
buffer in GNU Emacs 22.2.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2008-03-26 on
RELEASE and those from the same thing with GNU Emacs 23.0.60.1
(i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2008-04-04 on LENNART-69DE564. The Emacs 22
listing shows the frame parameters that I want and that my code
specifies. The Emacs 23 parameters are incorrect.
 
Several frame parameters have been changed so that I don't get what I
specified: frame background color, absence/presence of fringe,
etc. These are marked "WRONG" in the Emacs 23 listing.
 
[Actually, the incorrect background color does not appear over the
whole frame. At the end of the buffer/frame, in the empty space after
the last text, the correct background color shows. And as you scroll,
the correct background color flashes over the middle of the frame
momentarily. But the incorrect color (white) returns immediately.]
 
In addition, there are multiple occurrences of parameters - these are
marked "extra" in the listing. Sometimes the values are changed in the
extra occurrences; sometimes the values are the same. Sometimes the an
occurrence with a changed value comes before the occurrence with the
correct value; sometimes it comes after it.
 
In addition, there are new parameters that don't occur in the Emacs
22.2 listing - these are marked "new" in the listing. In some cases,
even these new parameters (which are not provided by my code) are
duplicated.
 
Minor info: Though the right fringe, like the left fringe, has the
incorrect value of 8, visually, the right fringe is twice as wide as
the left fringe - more like 16 than 8. (In any case, I specified 0,
not 8.)

I don't know what has to be done in w32fns.c to make this work.

Thanks for finding this. It seems the appropriate change was made to w32fns.c on 2008-07-14, from memory it fixed part of the problem Drew had reported.

Drew,

I am marking bug#117 as done, since the original bug reported seems to be gone now. There are however several other bugs mentioned later in the thread, which should have their own bug reports (I know at least some of them do, for example bug#119 is mentioned a couple of times, in one case referencing the report). If any bugs mentioned there still exist after this fix has been applied and do not have an open bug report of their own already, please file a separate report for them.
