bug#1348: set-frame-width and set-frame-position seem buggy on at least MSWindows

["Themba Fletcher" <themba@shirleymachine.com>]

When migrating to Emacs 22.3.1 on microsoft windows, the following
lines in my .emacs file do not behave as expected:

  (set-frame-position (selected-frame) 0 0)
  (sleep-for 2) ; not originally in my .emacs -- testing only
  (set-frame-width (selected-frame) 150)
  (sleep-for 2)
  (set-frame-height (selected-frame) 55)
  (sleep-for 2))

This used to leave me with a 150 X 55 frame located at 0,0 on my
display but it instead now leaves me with a default size frame still
located at 0,0 as expected. Please note that when I said M-x ielm and
pasted in the set-frame-width and -height lines as above after emacs
finished loading they did as I expected, ie. resized the frame
without problem.

I replaced these lines with the following in my .emacs as a
workaround:

(let ((destructo-target (selected-frame)))
  (make-frame (list '(top . 0)
		    '(left . 0)
		    '(width . 150)
		    '(height . 55)))
  (delete-frame destructo-target))
