Did you try to just customize the variable tool-bar-mode?  Maybe (I am not
sure) the customization is loaded before the frame actually display any
toolbar.

By adding such line 
  '(tool-bar-mode nil nil (tool-bar))
what do you get?  It is a quoted expression... or do you mean that you
changed by hand a customization?
