This is wrong.

This is wrong too.

Still wrong.

The bottom of the child frame should be 40 pixels from the bottom of
the parent frame.

This is quite annoying, it means Emacs 27 behaves wrongly. I wonder if
Emacs 26 does too, or has it been broken the whole time?

I inadvertently made order of operations matter when they shouldn’t.
I’ve got a fix for this, but it’s opening up a whole other can of
worms regarding frame positioning and the reporting of positions.

I think I know what to do but the last time I worked on this we had a
lot of edge cases that weren’t easy to test, with multiple monitors
and spaces. I think I’ll have to look at the old bug reports to work
out how we handle that.
