A pane refused for want of room spends no pane serial, as a refused Newcol spends no column serial

A pane/new, look or exec refused ENOSPC made its pane before placing it.
The refusal closed the pane unannounced, but its serial was gone, so the
next pane skipped one. When sync removes a refused pane that holds the
newest serial, it now puts the counter back.
