Bug Description

Maximise a gnome-terminal window, then unmaximise it. Each time it is unmaximised, it shrinks in size by one column and one row.

I suspected this was because the scroll bar incorrectly extends 1 pixel beyond the right and bottom edges of the window, however the bug is still present with the Show scrollbar option disabled. Other applications (xterm, Thunderbird, etc.) are not affected.
