Comment (by EionRobb):

 Looking at the winpidgin_ensure_onscreen() function in gtkwin32dep.c,
 we're using the !GetWindowRect() function, which according to
 [https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-
 us/library/windows/desktop/ms633519(v=vs.85).aspx the comments in MSDN]
 (and also [http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-
 US/windowsuidevelopment/thread/6c1c67a9-5548-4e9b-989f-c7dbac0b1375/ the
 Windows forums] ) says that the coordinates given aren't the *actual*
 coordinates, since we aren't targeting Vista (winver=6) in our app, we
 instead need to use !DwmGetWindowAttribute()
