  xemacs21 -q -no-site-file -batch \
    -eval '(progn (pop-to-buffer "x") (shrink-window-if-larger-than-buffer))'

gets a seg fault.  gdb claims to to be somwhere

    #0  0x0816966c in ?? ()
    #1  0x08169f2d in ?? ()
    #2  0x0816a165 in ?? ()

    #6  0x081b74d2 in Fpos_visible_in_window_p ()
    #7  0x080bdfcb in Ffuncall ()
    ...

I struck this when running `finder-commentary' in some batch mode unit
tests (checking my .el files have recognisable "Commentary:" sections).
I don't want to show a window or anything, I merely hoped shrink-window
or whatever bit might do nothing much in batch mode.
