I'll try to figure out if there's already an opened issue.
Are you running Wayland on Linux?
GNOME 3.20 on X but I've logged in on GNOME Wayland and from top, left
corner the position became right above the terminal ... even worst than X
...
Is it only window-position that does

Good question.
Changing `win.connect("show",Gtk.main);` to
`win.connect("show",()=>{win.move(100,100);Gtk.main()});`
moves the window in the right spot, still on X.
I might try after on Wayland too but the point is that position is not
working.

I'm not sure you're trying to suggest a work around but, as a software
developer, I strongly believe a default value doesn't mean if you use/pass
that exact value, the code behind decides instead to use a random number,
string, or shenanigan.
Accordingly, if I pass position center and the code, which by default has a
position center, doesn't accept my value, I call that a bug.
Regardless, Ubuntu 16 seems to work without problems with the exact same
code so maybe there's something else missing here?
Is any specific library necessary to position properly windows?
Best Regards
