  Unity messes up geometry calculations

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: unity

  I have my Emacs windows set up to display in very specific locations
  with very specific widths and heights.  Unity messes up those geometry
  calculations in several ways:

  * When the initial Emacs window comes up, it is too far right.
  Normally, I have my Emacs window come up on the right edge of the left
  screen, but with Unity, it comes up so that a strip of about 1" wide
  lives on the right screen, while the rest lives on the left screen.

  * When I create the second Emacs window (via Emacs keybinding), the
  window opens too tall.  It opens in the correct location horizontally
  (namely: right next to the first Emacs window), but it is about two
  text lines too tall.

  * When Unity crashes (see some of my other bugs), and restarts.  All
  the Emacs windows are about an inch lower.  Do this enough times and
  the windows crawl right off the bottom of the screen.
