It's quite possible the sizing problem still exists, but I don't think
it can be reproduced
anymore. The reason I noticed it was that there was a bug in the
toolbar code that
made some buttons disappear. I'm not sure if there is any way for the
current emacs
code to display a toolbar without any buttons in it.
