I tried adding:

(defadvice set-frame-size (after jpb-advice-resize-1)
  (ecb-redraw-layout))
(defadvice set-frame-width (after jpb-advice-resize-2)
  (ecb-redraw-layout))
(defadvice set-frame-height (after jpb-advice-resize-2)
  (ecb-redraw-layout))
(ad-activate 'set-frame-size)
(ad-activate 'set-frame-width)
(ad-activate 'set-frame-height)

But, as you said, it only works when calling set-frame-xxx from Elisp
code, not on window manager events.

Thanks for the tip anyways, I didn't know about "advices".
