For some odd reason, when I am staring gVim on my Linux Ubuntu 16.04 LTS laptop 
using the Unity desktop, it starts to low when I am asking it to take all the 
vertical space available.  It starts at position y=53 while it should start at 
y=24, just below the windows manager's toolbar (it is 29 pixels too low).  The 
length of the window is fine and well within the screen height once I move it 
at its proper place. 

It is the only application that shows this behaviour.  All the other 
applications start at a proper height, just under the menu bar.  This suggest 
that this has something to do with gVim. 

It used to work properly in 14.04.  I cannot recall exactly when this started.  
Not sure if that problem occurred as soon as I upgraded to 16.04 or if it 
happened later. 

Following, the .vimrc used for reproducing the problem: 


winpos 0 0 
set lines=999 " 999 = take all the vertical space. 
winpos 0 0 
" Window position report at this point: X 0, Y 53 


This occurs with the latest code found in the git repository, as of 2017-02-14. 
 Anybody can help me trace the root of the problem?

Thank you in advance, 
Hans Deragon
