either do the get_size()/move calls in an idle handler, or after
maximise/unmaximise, call while (gtk_events_pending())
{ gtk_main_iteration(); }.

you are working with an event driven GUI toolkit. stuff doesn't actually
happen to windows until you return control to the main loop. this
includes actual pixels being drawn on the screen, windows being resized,
etc.
