Hmm. The "else" part of shrink_mini_window (which works, in this case,
if you force it to go that route) definitely shrinks the window:

      Lisp_Object window;
      XSETWINDOW (window, w);
      enlarge_window (window, 1 - XFASTINT (w->total_lines), 0);

As for the "if" part, I think you're right.

Anyway, the last patch by Martin worked as expected, at least for this
bug. Is there any downside to it?
