With changed minibuffer font size the prompt is visible.

Prompt is still visible.

What build/OS you are using? I can reproduce it at least on NS and GTK3
builds. Doesn't minibuffer-only frame became the minimal width and
height for you right after evaluating '(setq resize-mini-frames t)'?

I didn't saw the prompt issue. Stefan and Eli, can you please confirm
that the prompt issue is totally gone?
Thanks.
