At the time `window-configuration-change-hook' is called, the frame is
considered "official" already.  Do you really want to wait calling it
until redisplay has passed over the frame at least once?

There is such a flag: f->official.  It does exactly that for all
adjust_frame_size calls before the last one that causes trouble.  But if
we don't run `window-configuration-change-hook' here, we might not run
it at all when creating a new frame.
