And this seems to compensate for the bug, at least with the above recipe:

(defun enlarge-font-by (increment)
   (let* ((old-font (cdr (assq 'font (frame-parameters (selected-frame)))))
	 (new-font (enlarged-font-name old-font (selected-frame) increment)))
     (modify-frame-parameters
      (selected-frame) (list (cons 'scroll-bar-width 6)))
     (modify-frame-parameters
      (selected-frame) (list (cons 'font new-font)))))

Switch the order of the two calls to `modify-frame-parameters' and the
bug is manifested again.
