raspi-config thinks the default setting for gpu_mem is 64MB - it's not. If there is no gpu_mem directive specified in config.txt, the firmware now defaults to allocating 76MB to the GPU. raspi-config should be modified accordingly.

It appears the Pi 1 (and probably Zero) have the old default, i.e. 64MB.

Just for reference, @popcornmix said here that:
"default gpu_mem is 76 for 1GB (or greater) and 64 for less."

I saw that. My wording transposes that onto the models of Pi. Only Pi 1 and Zero have less than 1GB.
