Bug#361581: Bug occurs only for non-resized new tabs

Package: gnome-terminal
Version: 2.14.0-1
Followup-For: Bug #361581

Usually I have gnome-terminal at size 128x48 (started with
'gnome-terminal --geometry="128x48-0+0"').

What I managed to find is:
1. Applications opened in first/none/only (how to call that?) tab of freshly
run gnome-terminal behave correctly (even at 128x48)
2. After pressing Ctrl+Shift+T and running application in newly opened tab
buggy behaviour occurs.
3. But after _resizing_ terminal window before starting application in newly
opened tab - application behaves properly. (even after resizing "back and
forth", eg. to 128x47 and back to 128x48)


So my guess is, there is sth. wrong with initialization of new tabs (probably
default geometry settings of 80x25 are set in new environment instead of
current actuals), but updated, actual size is transferred to shell environment
after resizing of terminal window.
