Scroll bars and fringes _are_ counted in the "windows" code and do not
affect the frame size.  Otherwise changing scroll bars in a single
window frame would resize the frame as well, just try

(set-window-scroll-bars nil 200 'right)

and see that the frame width remains alone.  So the only problem I see
is with change_frame_size.
