Window resize during startup

[Joshua Varner]

This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation,
not to your local site managers!
Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the address@hidden mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

I have CVS emacs from mid June I believe -- it's been a little since I
updated -- compiled with --with-gtk, and I noticed an interesting
behavior.

If you run emacs like this and then grab the title bar as soon as it
appears and hold down the mouse button, the window won't resize.

emacs -Q --eval="(progn (sleep-for 5) (setq initial-frame-alist '((top
. 0) (left . 20) (width . 100)(height . 30))))"

I'm guessing the window manager is waiting for me to complete the drag
and drop it somewhere, but if I wait until emacs has finished the eval
the window is never resized. I noticed this because I have a not
insubstantial .emacs and happened to try to move the window right
after it appeared and it never resized.

Not really a major bug, just odd.
