Thanks rich2005.
Meanwhile, I stumbled across the workaround: simply click the green button in the title bar to get to full-screen mode and then everything works. The bug reproduces only if I Quit GIMP while it is in full-screen mode, with the menu bar auto-hiding. If the menu bar is visible while Quitting, GIMP comes up working next time it is opened, regardless of how big the window was at the last Quit.
Seems like devs might have better things to do so I didn't report it. Or maybe I'm projecting and it is me who has better things to do?
– I was writing FORTRAN on punch cards in 1973.
