"A bug with all but one of them [that are not working with the test]"

My guess on what Sawfish is doing wrong for N/S/E/W/C in the "move to
current position" case is that it doesn't center the frame properly on
initial map. I haven't investigated fully. The bug could be in
gtk_window_get_position() of course.
