Yes, if you do a xprop on a R4 xterm, you see:

WM_NORMAL_HINTS(WM_SIZE_HINTS):
                user specified size: 578 by 340
                program specified size: 578 by 340
                program specified minimum size: 25 by 18
                program specified resize increment: 7 by 14
                program specified base size: 18 by 4

old (R3) WMs and clients use the "minimum size", but new (R4) WMs and
clients use the new ICCCM property "base size" for calculating the "logical"
size (pixel size  =  logical size  x  increment  + base size)

Moral: R3 WMs will give incorrect sizes for R4 clients.
One more reason to trash uwm :-)
