> Some reasons causing terminal resize during startup:
> (1) If running emacs on Android
> (http://endlessparentheses.com/running-emacs-on-android.html), you may
> want to show the (or switch to another) touch keyboard, which causes a
> terminal resize. Android also forces CANNOT_DUMP since binaries needs
> to be position-independent, and startup is also slower due to running
> on mobile devices, so the window of opportunity increases.
> (2) One wants to resize the terminal to e.g. put the terminal window
> with emacs besides another window, or maximize the window.
> (3) One wants to change font size when jumping from the terminal into emacs.
>
> If one knows that emacs crashes if resizing during startup it's easy
> to wait for startup to complete before doing any of the above.

Well, if someone could provide a backtrace showing how these errors
are triggered by resizing the frame, perhaps this could be fixed.
Thanks.
