There has been another set of window frame hanling patches by Richard. The original problem should be fixed by these.

This might be fixed in latest GNUstep SVN (see below),
but only for EWMH(1.3)-compatible window manager, such as metacity.
WindowMaker doesn't, but GNUstep can guess it right most of time.

        * Source/x11/XGServerWindow.m (-styleoffsets::::::): New method to
        compute window frame offset based on the _NET_FRAME_EXTENTS or
        _KDE_NET_WM_FRAME_STRUT property. This is based on a slightly
        extended patch by Yen-Ju Chen <yjchenx@hotmail.com>.
        Call this new method from [styleoffsets:::::] and [_OSFrameToXHints:].

This is a bug in gui.  You likely have GSX11HandlesWindowDecorations set to YES, or not set at all.  If you set it to NO, GNUstep will draw it's own window decorations and this problem shoudn't occur anymore.

The cause is the size of the window decorations isn't constant and can't be accounted for in NSWindow.   NSWindow must consider the decorations to be part of the frame of the window, so GNUstep attempts to guess what the size of the decorations are when it doesn't draw them.  If this calculation is off, it causes the windows to drift.

This is a known issue in gui.
