I think you're right. First, like in bug#22000, I also see this in the
console:
(emacs:5016): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_distribute_natural_allocation:
assertion 'extra_space >= 0' failed
(I'd seen this all along, and also in the past have seen other (or
perhaps the same?) Gtk-CRITICAL console messages when running Emacs, but
have never bothered to investigate them.)
Second, when I disable the menu bar before evaluating the code with one
of the fonts that, with the menu bar enabled, results in the frame
widening, or if I start emacs with -Q -D, then there is no
frame-widening. Moreover, I now know how to get frame-widening without
loading Hyperbole; e.g. by enabling outline-mode instead, which also
adds to the menu bar (but in this case there's only widening at the last
step, and only to 86; the larger and more varied widening only happens
(so far) with Hyperbole loaded). Yet I haven't noticed this widening
with Dired or Gnus by itself, as it seems others have. Anyway, it's now
clear why Bob Weiner couldn't reproduce this on his Mac.
