I have a frame with several subwindows that do not have the default
NorthWest gravity.  When there is a resize on the frame, the sub-windows
move to new locations, but XView's idea of XV_X and XV_Y positions for the
windows do not appear to get updated.  Is this a bug in xview library?

Another problem I have noticed is that if these subwindows have WIN_BORDER
attribute set and if they also have WIN_EXTEND_TO_EDGE ad its width/height
dimensions, after a move caused by Window Gravity, the borders are lost.
The sub-windows now have width/height that includes the border thickness.
Another related bug?
