I now added a variable called 'x-gtk-insist-on-requested-size'.  If
non-nil, it should do what its doc-string says.  The rest of the
attached patch is mostly what was in a diff I earlier posted as
gtkutil-reject-2024-10-02.diff.  Please try it.

Thanks very much for this. I have switched to KDE, because it seemed that GNOME was making problems for other applications, not just Emacs; for example, Firefox windows were also opening small (but then resizing larger).

I did do one final test before switching, which was to check that I still experienced the problem in a default setup (so that it wasn't due to my user settings).

I do have another machine that is still using GNOME, so I will try to test your patch before I switch it to KDE too.
