If the window manager wants to resize all windows to be exactly 
100 pixels square, there is nothing the application can do about
it. GTK does set minimize hints when appropriate, but apparently
AfterStep doesn't respect the vertical size hint. (It is possible
that Tk is doing something a bit different than GTK, but all other
window managers seem to handle GTK's hints correctly. You can 
investigate what hints are being set using 'xwininfo -size'.)
