But my_set_window_pos just tells Windows to redraw the frame according
to the current dimensions.  It's the current dimensions that need to
be changed, and that is done by redisplay, when it notices that the
font was changed and therefore the dimensions of the glyph matrices
need to be updated.

Probably due to Stefan's changes.  "M-x redraw-display RET" should put
you out of your misery.  (It's entirely possible that just "M-x" will
do.)
