Thanks.  I'm a bit lost currently because there seem to be problems
here, at least with my GTK+3 build on the Xfce desktop.  I've tried to
debug x_real_pos_and_offsets with emacs -Q but still am not able to find
out what's wrong.  Maybe you can help with the following two issues.

(1) `x-frame-geometry' reports an external border width of zero for a
    normal, non-maximized frame.  That's clearly wrong, the width is 5
    pixels.  I have no idea how to track down what XGetWindowAttributes
    retrieves here.

(2) `x-frame-geometry' reports a title height of 5.  This is wrong - the
    title height is 20 pixels.  I don't yet understand how
    x_real_pos_and_offsets works but I strongly suppose that

      if (top_offset_y) *top_offset_y = -outer_x;

    should be

      if (top_offset_y) *top_offset_y = -outer_y;

    at least.

Also, these two assignments

  outer_width = FRAME_PIXEL_WIDTH (f) + 2 * border + right_off + left_off;
  outer_height = FRAME_PIXEL_HEIGHT (f) + 2 * border + top_off + bottom_off;

should _not_ use FRAME_PIXEL_HEIGHT and FRAME_PIXEL_WIDTH because that
would mean that I counter-check our calculations of frame sizes from
these calculations.  What we should use here are the 'width' and 'height'
attributes as returned by XWindowAttributes.

I haven't checked yet but do we conceptually assume that

FRAME_PIXEL_WIDTH (f) == atts.width
FRAME_PIXEL_HEIGHT (f) == atts.height

Or does something additionally come into play here?

Thanks, martin
