I'm sorry; my bad.  Setting it to nil fixes this problem but brings back
the thumbnail frame problem (which is much more important for me).

I thought I already answered that.  Anyway, yes: if I set the var to t
in the 2013-12-14 build then I get the mode-line problem.  And if I set
it to nil in the 2013-12-16 build then that prevents the mode-line problem.

I can reconfirm that this is the case, however strange it may seem.
But this might be because of differences due to info+.el.  What is the
reason that you expect the header line to be lost along with the mode
line?
