--text follows this line--
Resizing the window vertically on OS X Lion behaves very strangely.
as you drag up or down, the window jumps all over the place. then when
you let go of the mouse button, the window dissapears. CMD+Tab to
another app and back and the window re-appears but is usually very small
and at the top of the screen.

Steps to reproduce. Start emacs on OS X Lion. with the mouse, grab the 
bottom
edge of the window and drag up and down.

Hello.

I've checked in a fix for this.  However, it is a problem with redrawing 
(frames does not redraw when resizing) that the old, bottom right corner only, 
resize code tried to handle, but didn't do well.  I think this requires a 
rewrite of the event loop for Nextstep.  This is also required for the 
slowdowns reported elsewhere.  But I think that is not something we shall add 
during feature freeze.

	Jan D.

I do think this is something someone needs to work on at some point.
So I'd welcome patches in this direction, e.g. on a new branch.
