Thanks, for some reason `debug-on-entry` did not invoke the debugger
when I tested it.

I never dealt with the C side of Emacs and you suggested to offer the 
new function as first customization choice for `resize-mini-frames`.
I guess this needs to be done on the C side as the variable is defined 
there?

I have attached the patch I have worked on. Let me know how to proceed 
and thanks for your help!
