   Yes, this is a known problem. I believe it only happens with some
window managers. As a quick test you can try replacing 'StaticGravity'
with 'NorthWestGravity' in 'windows/x11drv/wnd.c'. If that does not work
then the best is probably to wait for the window management rewrite
which will be done... uuuuh... before the Wine 1.0 release?

   Oh, and if that does not work then as a workaround your window
manager probably provides other ways to move such windows:
 - fvwm2/95: middle-button on any border, choose move
 - WindowMaker: press Alt and left-click anywhere on the window to move
it
