int XDisplayHeightMM(display, screen_number)
      Display *display;
      int screen_number;
int XDisplayWidthMM(display, screen_number)
      Display *display;
      int screen_number;

I found them on
http://www.the-labs.com/X11/XLib-Manual/display/image-format-macros.html#DisplayWidthMM

I think it is good idea to use them. After all X may know better, and
-monitor-aspect to be used as override.
