Yes, and it is partly taken into account since the window is "almost"
at the correct position each time I run GnuCash. I say "almost",
because there is a shift at each run:

Yes.

Non, it isn't related to fvwm: I've tried with twm, and there the same
problem, except that the shift is smaller:

[820,24]
[818,22]
[816,20]

I've tried with GNOME and the problem doesn't appear with it, but
GNOME doesn't support (at least by default) active placement (manual
placement), which seems to be the cause of the problem, but only
with the "Tip Of The Day" window (no such problem with the main
GnuCash window).
