I can reproduce the problem on the Cygwin w32 build, but Martin's suggestion 
(https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=25542#83) doesn't fix it.  He 
suggested the following, if I understand correctly:

diff --git a/src/w32term.c b/src/w32term.c
index 76cf6bd696..c7da95528b 100644
--- a/src/w32term.c

-                     || NILP (fullscreen))
-                     {
-                       int x, y;

-                       if (x < 0 && y < 0)
-                         store_frame_param (f, Qfullscreen, Qmaximized);
-                     }
+                   store_frame_param (f, Qfullscreen, Qmaximized);
                  }

                  break;

If I make this change and follow Dani's recipe from the original bug report, the 
second F11 press doesn't restore the previous state.  Instead, the frame appears 
to get slightly smaller for an instant and then immediately reverts to 
fullscreen mode.
