emacs -q --no-site-file -l foo.el

load some image (say jpg, png, or tif) in image-mode,
the image needs to be large enough for the bug to occur, say 1024x768

Put mouse pointer over image.
Press C-mouse-1

emacs 24.3.93: command foo gives width and height of the image
emacs 24.4: command foo gives (0 . 0)

Strange enough: starting emacs 24.4 via

emacs -q --no-site-file --no-splash -l ~/emacs/dot/foo.el

works as expected

No, this still fails for larger images: 

--no-splash makes posn-object-width-height work for a test image
512x384, but it fails for 1024x768

Please post the URLs where one can find the images you tried, or
images that can be used to reproduce this problem.

Say, I observe the buggy behavior if I enlarge the file splash.png
in the etc directory of emacs:

convert splash.png -resize 1024 splash-1024.png
convert splash.png -resize 2048 splash-2048.png

In this case for emacs 24.4

emacs -q --no-splash -l foo.el splash-1024.png  # fine
emacs -q             -l foo.el splash-1024.png  # buggy
emacs -q --no-splash -l foo.el splash-2048.png  # buggy
emacs -q             -l foo.el splash-2048.png  # buggy

No problem with emacs 24.3.93

An embarrassing typo that caused this is now fixed on the emacs-24
branch.

Thanks.

I can confirm that now things work again as expected.

THANK YOU, you saved my day.
