It has nothing to do with resizing... you may be confusing bit-gravity
with window-gravity?
To demonstrate the problem, set your zwgc borderwidth to something other
than what twm has as a borderwidth. TWM has a default borderwidth of 2,
so set your zwgc borderwidth to 10 or something so that the problem will
be blatantly obvious...
% xrdb -merge
zwgc*borderWidth: 10
Now restart your zwgc (or start another one, so that you can observe the
correct and broken behavior at the same time), and send yourself a zgram
that will be placed with some negative geometry aspect. (My personals
come up in -0-0, but any corner or any negative x or y will do.)
Observe broken-ness.
I don't know what function was used to parse the geometries for zgrams,
but there is an X function that will parse the geometry for you and give
you the correct window-gravity...
