In GNU Emacs 18.52.9 of Thu Nov 24 1988 on paris.Berkeley.EDU (berkeley-unix):
(Sun 3 running Sun Unix 3.2)

If I start up under X (DISPLAY set properly), with "-q -l foo", where foo is:

(x-set-icon t)
(x-set-window-edges 80 44 145 75)

The window comes up and then Emacs dies, exiting with status 70.
It calls XPending (which I don't have source for) and suddenly appears in
XExitGracefully and exits.

If only one of these calls, rather than both, is done, there is no problem.
The window coordinates don't make a difference (what they are).
