> The key to reproduce it to have 2 Emacs windows inside the frame:
> 1. Open emacs (no need for emacsclient) with -Q. No need to set
> garbage-collection-messages to t
> 2. Do C-x 2 to have 2 windows, one above one below
> 3. Resize the X window to make it very small, (1 line or so)
> 4. It should immediately crash.

I see a different abort, for which I've now installed a fix.  To try
to fix the above one, I need some additional data:

  (gdb) frame 2
  (gdb) p window_matrix->rows->glyphs[0]
  (gdb) p frame_matrix->rows->glyphs[0]
  (gdb) p frame_matrix->rows->glyphs[2]
  (gdb) p window_matrix->nrows
  (gdb) p frame_matrix->nrows
