I understood that. Oh! Are you saying that there is a space at the top of the window (as opposed to the screen)? Did that not used to be there? Hm. I can see how my change would have done that. But given that the original code didn't work, I don't see how to fix the problem without an explicit test on whether the menu bar is in the window or not. Well, it requires more understanding of gtk than I have, anyways.
