gnome-terminal doesn't respect negative X in --geometry

[Tim Lesher]

[Release 10 (julia), Gnome 32-bit]

Under mint, gnome-terminal doesn't appear to respect a negative X geometry.

Given the command:

gnome-terminal --geometry=80x25-0+0

I expected a terminal window aligned with the right edge of the screen. Instead, I see a terminal window roughly centered on the screen.

The behavior is deterministic; strangely, it seems to be affected by the *width* of the terminal window. Decreasing the width locates it closer to the right edge. The position appears to approach the (correct) right edge as the width approaches zero.

The same command works correctly running Ubuntu 10.10 (both using gnome-terminal 2.32.0-0ubuntu1).
