The following patch fixes this bug:

One gripe I have with it is that the CHECK_NUMBER macro does not seem
to work. If I use a string for the `top' or `left' property no error
is thrown. Does anybody know why?
I can provide a change log entry once this is settled.
Anyway, the patch fixes frame positioning if `top' or `left' was
specified in `default-frame-alist'. If the first frame should be
created at the correct position right away, the registry keys
`Emacs.Top' and `Emacs.Left' have to be used instead.
