According to the discussion on Bug#18990, changing scrollbar width with
GTK is problematic.

Package: Emacs
Version: 24.0.92

I have (scroll-bar-width . 6) in my default-frame-alist, and this
properly sets my scrollbars to be nice and thin.  But every once in
a while, my scrollbars get dynamically resized to the (my thicker)
default.
By that I really mean that the existing scrollbars in my Emacs session
get resized: new frames will get the nice and thin scrollbar I like
again, but old ones now have the thicker scrollbars.

I don't know how to reproduce it, but I suspect that the times when this
occurs are linked to running "aptitude upgrade", so it may have to do
with restarting some system daemon, maybe D-bus or something, which
somehow re-sends the "user global settings" to Emacs which then applies
them to every existing frame, despite default-frame-alist expressing
a preference for some other setting.
