bug#38181: Actual height of mode-line not taken into account

I don't know if it will help you dealing with the problem, but I
believe that what I've just answered to Martin is new, indeed the
workaround that was working before carefully deactivated itself after
the first forced redisplay. What I can't see is why after the first
redisplay, if the modeline hasn't changed, the popup will be chopped
like that (a fortiori considering that previously it was correctly
laid out).

Best regards,
Carlos
