bug#2338: 23.0.60; Color Between Window Fringes (Mac OS X)

In Emacs version 22.X there was either a black or white line between
window fringes when the frame was split and scroll bars were turned
off.

In the current Emacs, the background color is used for the line
between the fringes, making it hard to tell where one window ends, and
another starts.

I have two screenshots to make comparison easier:

Both Emacs sessions were started with the -q option.  It was
frustrating to see that the default background color, toolbar, and
scroll bar settings differed between version 22 and 23.

When switching to a white background with a black foreground, the
space between the window fringes was white, and just as difficult to
see where the window edges are located because the fringes blend
together.

Please let me know if I can get any other details for you.  Thanks.
