In that case you might appreciate my shrink-window-if-larger-than-buffer
patch: v2 created a fixed height *BBDB* window, v3 creates a *BBDB*
window half the height of the tallest one.  Did you see the e-mail?

Because the horiz-p argument is not always passed, which means that the
my (bbdb-message-pop-up 'horiz) setting is ignored unless *BBDB* window
is popped from a very specific place (which it is not always is).

Also, a function which takes 6 (optional!) arguments is brittle by design.
