Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 17.10
xfce4-terminal 0.8.6-0ubuntu1 amd64

This command no longer behave correctly:
    xfce4-terminal --geometry=80x25-170-40

Expected:
Per X(7), this should create a window whose lower right corner is located
170 pixels left of and 40 pixels up from the bottom right corner of the screen.

What happens:
Entering the example geom spec is incorrectly treated as if it were:
    80x25-0-0

xterm / lxterm / uxterm work in the expected manner using:
    -geometry 80x25-170-40

** Affects: xfce4-terminal (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** Description changed:

  Ubuntu 17.10
