no further comments, so I presume the issue is resolved, and I'm
closing this bug.

[Message part 3 (message/rfc822, inline)]

To reproduce this issue, please invoke Emacs with:

    $ emacs -Q --eval "(while t (menu-bar-mode (if menu-bar-mode 0 1)) (redisplay))"

Within a few seconds of running this, I unexpectedly see the frame
getting smaller and smaller.

With earlier Emacs versions, the frame unexpectedly becomes
substantially larger within a few minutes of running it.

All the best,
Markus
