Subject: 27.0.50; Deadly signal in make-frame 
Date: Sun, 02 Sep 2018 21:24:55 +0200

It seems there is a problem when a float is being used as the parameter
value of either `width' or `height' in a `make-frame' call: The X server
reports a BadDrawable error and Emacs aborts.  This behaviour occurs
deterministically in both window-managers I've tried, i.e. i3 and
fluxbox.  A backtrace follows.

Does the attached patch fix it?  If so, I'll install it on the release
branch.  OK Eli?

Many thanks for the report, martin

Apparently the above alone was not sufficient to mark the bug as done.
Doing it manually this time.

You need to send that text to control <at> debbugs.gnu.org (when doing this
in a bug thread message, you should use Bcc to avoid further replies
going to control, which is why you don't see this when others do it).

Aha.  I indeed tried to follow your pattern but obviously missed the Bcc
trick.
