I've got an application window positioning bug in Windows 7 when the
system taskbar is at the top of the screen and the position is
executed via a VimEnter autocmd on startup.

On WinXP, a VimEnter command executing a :winpos command worked as
expected. A window may be positioned anywhere.

But in Win7, the top of the gVim application window is unable to be
positioned less than 2x the bottom of the taskbar via VimEnter. The
same routine works fine after Vim has started, just not during
VimEnter.

Is this related to Win7 "helping" to push down applications
accidentally shoved under the taskbar by mouse? (WinXP didn't do
this.)

On my system, manually positioning gVim to bottom of taskbar produces
getwinposy() = 28. A y-value 2x greater than the bottom of taskbar
(eg, 56) works, but anything less via VimEnter results in getwinposy()
= 56 after startup.

Seems odd the resulting value of y is 2x the request.
