No. Not if I understand correctly.

_My_ Emacs 25.2.rc2 is modified so that the entire body of
xg_set_geometry() is deleted and replaced by a call to
gtk_window_move(). This fixes the bug and did not produce any
adverse effects in six weeks of use (on my system at least).

My Emacs 25.2 is the stock release from the tarball. I don't know
if it contains any patch for this bug, but if it does that patch
does not appear to work.

The symbol `x_gtk_use_window_move' is not defined in the emacs-25
branch, only in master.

Thanks.
