Caveat: the testing has all been on my desktop at work, so I can't
run new tests at this instant and am working from memory.

My memory is that they happen at all times when using --iconic.
>>> emacs -Q --iconic --geometry 80x78+1180+0 --font
>>> "-misc-fixed-bold-r-normal-*-15-*-100-100-*-*-ISO8859-1"

Yes, the size should be 80x78 and instead comes up as 79x77.
Weird, huh?

I'll try to remember to try those tomorrow.

When running without -Q, I used grep to remove resource settings
from my master parameter file and reloaded that into X11 with
xrdb.

Yes. And I never would have noticed the flashes if I hadn't been
testing; they're under 1/10 second and happen when I'm logging in
every morning.

Yes, the same bad width. I'll check carefully tomorrow to see
whether there is any frame change.
