I think this may also depend on the dropout. I have a short-cage Jubilee mounted on a Tange TR dropout (http://www.os2.dhs.org/~john/dropouts/tange-tr.jpeg) and it barely clears the upper pulley with a 23T cog.
Further accommodation may be possible by adjusting the "angle of the dangle" if your mounting bolt kit includes an adjusting screw, but changing the angle too much will adversely affect shifting.
