bug#37609: Tool-bar-mode grows the frame's height

Here I get with a current Lucid (I suppose you will encounter troubles
building with Motif these days) build

((outer-size 764 . 702) (outer-size 764 . 702))

whereas on Emacs 27 this was indeed

((outer-size 764 . 720) (outer-size 764 . 702))

Can you please check again?

This gets me

(outer-size 764 . 720)

but evaluating

(assq 'outer-size (frame-geometry))

once more (it takes time to relate such changes to `frame-geometry') now
gives

(outer-size 764 . 738)

which should yield the same value of (frame-height) as before (please
check).  On Emacs 27 this was botched because the outer size changed to

(outer-size 764 . 720)

only and the frame height dropped from 36 to 35 lines.

This now gets me

(outer-size 764 . 702)

as expected.

So please have one more look into this issue.
