Sorry for the long delay in replying; I was away for a week and only saw
your followup mail and Eli's proposed fix last night and could not
attend to it till now. I was hopeful that it also fixes the resizing I
observed, but I just built from the latest emacs-25 sources, which
include that fix, tried the recipe and the resizing happened again.
However, I now find that I cannot reliably reproduce it: on repeating
the recipe several times the resizing happened one or two more times but
then no more. I also tried all previous builds I have, going back to
emacs-25.0.90, and in most cases did not get the resizing, but it did
happen a few times, but again not reproducibly (including the build I
was using when I initially posted my observation to this thread). So I
guess it's no use trying to bisect or debug the problem, or filing a
separate bug report for it. Too bad.

With Eli's fix I still observe "C-x 5 2" in the new frame's echo area,
irrespective of whether the resizing happens or not.
