There _is_ a better way: set a breakpoint in process_quit_flag (which
is called as part of QUIT), and see who called it.  Using this method,
I was able to catch the villain in no time, see below.

It wasn't an old bug, it was indeed caused by the pixel-wise changes.
Specifically, the fact that as part of the call to change_frame_size,
we can now call Lisp (in frame_windows_min_size).  The other part of
the puzzle is that w32_console_read_socket calls change_frame_size
unconditionally on every event it reads, because Windows doesn't tell
us about resizes of the console window.

So what happened was that we read the C-g key, called
kbd_buffer_store_event for it, which set Vquit_flag, and then we
called change_frame_size, which did QUIT when frame_windows_min_size
called Lisp.

I fixed that by passing a non-zero DELAY argument to
change_frame_size, so that it delays the actual resize to the next
opportunity, like the next redisplay cycle.

I'm closing this bug.

For the record, here's the backtrace I obtained from the breakpoint
set in process_quit_flag:
