It turned out I was missing some debugging symbols.
Once iinstalled all the debugging symbols the breakpoint is reached as 
expected.

The iconified flag is cleared, but I cannot tell you where this happens.
Of course, that prevents us to enter in the `if` branch at line 5472:
if (FRAME_ICONIFIED_P (f))


My two fixes point to the `else` branch at line 5505:

```
  if (new_state & GDK_WINDOW_STATE_ICONIFIED)
    SET_FRAME_ICONIFIED (f, true);
  else
    {
      FRAME_X_OUTPUT (f)->has_been_visible = true;
      inev.ie.kind = DEICONIFY_EVENT;
      XSETFRAME (inev.ie.frame_or_window, f);
      SET_FRAME_ICONIFIED (f, false);
    }
```

1. The first one "extends" this branch by adding this line:

SET_FRAME_VISIBLE (f, 1);

2. The second one just removes that `else` branch.

Both seems to fix the issue in my Wayland session.
