I'm not quite sure I'm remembering/understanding this correctly, but I
think I've seen some athena widget version of pcb exhibit similar
behavior, and it seemed to be the case that it would not let me resize
the board such that none of the board would end up in the area
currently on the screen.  If you scroll/pan so that the upper left
corner of the board is at the upper left hand corner of the window
showing the board, does it still fail to let you resize?

A workaround is to use a text editor.  It looks like the first
non-comment line looks something like this:

PCB["boardname" 90000 900000]

This example is for a board 9" tall and .9" wide.  But you can just
edit it with a text editor and then load the file in pcb and it should
work.
