Okay, I could reproduce this (although not the larger/smaller part)

One/The reason is in Fset_frame_height() at frame.c:2695

    if (XINT (lines) != FRAME_LINES (f))
       x_set_window_size (f, 1, FRAME_COLS (f), XINT (lines));

Basically if the window has 20 lines on enter-freeze, then our
thing wouldn't even start, because between "sleep-for" and
"set-frame-height" there is nothing to read the WM_SIZE messages
from the mouse-dragging.

Works for me if I disable this line:
    // if (XINT (lines) ...

It is a natural problem which happens only too often with
such "micro-optimizations".

Next case ?
