Comment (by intrigeri):

 Correct.

 > Maybe retry with ''that'' icon removed from the toolbar...

 Tails hides the ABP icon with
 `extensions.adblockplus.showintoolbar=false`.
 We also hide the HTTPS Everywhere and Foxyproxy toolbar icons via
 `userChrome.css`.

 With normal sized icons:

 * Tails 0.22.1~rc1 + the new patch: **fail**
 * Tails 0.22.1~rc1 + the new patch; ABP, Cookie Monster and FoxyProxy
 disabled: **fail**
 * Tails 0.22.1~rc1 + the new patch; NoScript and HTTPS Everywhere
 disabled: **fail**
 * Tails 0.22.1~rc1 + the new patch; ABP, Cookie Monster, FoxyProxy,
 NoScript and HTTPS Everywhere disabled: **success**

 So indeed, it seems that some extension of ours might be messing up with
 the toolbar size in a way that Torbutton does not detect.

 I've not tried disabling add-ons in small icons mode (since it works fine
 with all extensions enabled + the new patch).
