My distro is Archlinux, almost and up-to-date distro. I had installed
1.17.6. After your comment I upgrade cairo to the git version. And the
error is still present.

I should add that this error does NOT happen with emacs-master. So
something has changed on emacs-master, that incidentally has avoided
this error. Perhaps You could have an idea about what change has solved
it on master.

Ok. But again. I am getting rid of all the frames that belong to this
display. If the border change it is something I am not going to watch
(because. It is going to be too quick for my eyes). IMO It could be an
optimization there. Perhaps When 'dpyinfo->display == NULL' not updating
the frame anymore. Anyway that is a kind of tangent for this bug.

    Po> That isn't the cause of this error.

Right. It is asynchronous.
