This bug report was created from 'emacs -Q' and M-x report-emacs-bug'

After upgrading Linux to Ubuntu 23.04 the emacs create new frame function
(C-x 5 2) seems broken. What happens: when I create a new frame, it shows
up so tiny (15x7) that the GTK widget can't fit all the menu bar items and
throws the following error:

(emacs:11091): Gtk-CRITICAL **: 17:28:07.823:
gtk_distribute_natural_allocation: assertion 'extra_space >= 0' failed

This problem happens even when I run with 'emacs -Q', which could mean some
kind of basic incompatibility with gtk that may have been introduced with
the Ubuntu upgrade.
When launching emacs, the initial window displays the correct size, and the
Messages buffer is clean, the problem only happens when opening additional
frames.

I compiled emacs from source downloaded from
https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/download.html
I added no extra flags to the compilation, I just followed the vanilla
build instructions in the INSTALL file.

In GNU Emacs 29.1 (build 1, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.24.37,
