Great, thanks for testing.

> FYI - this is most probably unrelated to the font-height problem, anyway:

>     ./src/emacs -q --eval "(set-face-attribute 'default nil :height 40)" &
> creates a rather small frame (I mean gtk window). The consequent
> invocations of this
> command create frames of normal size.

> 2. On my "font-height-works" machine the command above produces warnings:

Not sure this is related to the issue at hand.
