 Thanks a lot Paul for working on this, it would be really great if it gave
correct results without anything special to do.

 I didn't have time to test it myself yet so I don't know why does it work
for you but not Nerijus, all I can say is that Mahogany basically stores
the results of GetPosition() and GetSize() in wxConfig in frame dtor (there
are also checks for iconized/maximized status but they're probably not
relevant here) and uses the numbers read from wxConfig in wxFrame ctor.

 Thanks,
