Assuming that this problem affects all or most users of recent GNOME, it
would be fantastic to have this patch installed. It's a very unsatisfactory
fix (because we don't understand what the problem really is, or even where,
I think?), but the current situation is quite annoying (every time I open a
new Emacs frame, I first have to resize it before I can use it).
Thanks again to Martin; having myself had to do quite a lot of proxy
debugging of weird effects on systems I don't use, I appreciate the
patience and hard thought that goes into trying to diagnose and fix this
sort of bug.
