Yes, I know, but it's possible that some checking causes a segfault.

Thanks.  With that indication, and after adding assertions in the code, I 
could make Emacs abort when that problem occurred.  I pushed a fix a few 
minutes ago.

But I'm still unable to reproduce your second recipe.  I tried again and 
again, both with a regular and a checking-enable build, with and without 
the fix for the first recipe, and with various frame sizes... but without 
success.  If you can still reproduce it with the fix, could you perhaps 
send me a backtrace?
