Specifying a number of device units in VERTICALLY or HORIZONTALLY


CLIM 2.0 Beta on LispWorks 3.2.21-beta-4 and Allegro 4.2.beta2.0

The CLIM 2.0 spec appears to say that CLIM:VERTICALLY and
CLIM:HORIZONTALLY accept device-unit specifications (numbers greater
than or equal to 1) for their constituent panes, as in the following
example:

-----
(in-package :cl-user)

(clim:define-application-frame gup-10 ()
  ()
  (:panes
   (gup-11 :application)
   (gup-12 :interactor))
  (:layouts
   (default
    (clim:vertically ()
                     (300 gup-11)
		     (200 gup-12)))))

-----

But this example signals an error.  Was this capability removed from
the CLIM 2.0 spec?  Must I instead specify a :WIDTH (:HEIGHT) for the
CLIM:HORIZONTALLY (CLIM:VERTICALLY) as a whole and then specify
fractions for each constituent pane, as in the following?

-----
(in-package :cl-user)

(clim:define-application-frame gup-10 ()
  ()
  (:panes
   (gup-11 :application)
   (gup-12 :interactor))
  (:layouts
   (default
    (clim:vertically (:height 500)
                     (3/5 gup-11)
		     (2/5 gup-12)))))
