I would suspect then that your GConf setup is busted.  Rhythmbox keeps
track of the dimensions of these windows in GConf.

Building a GConf-using app in another prefix (as just a regular user) is
a little tricky.  Here's how I build Rhythmbox from CVS:

$ (./autogen.sh --disable-musicbrainz --prefix=/build/rb --with-gconf-source='xml:readwrite:/build/rb/etc/gconf/' --with-gconf-schema-file-dir=/build/rb/etc/gconf && make CFLAGS='-g -Wall -Werror -O0' 2>&1) | tee ~/tmp/rb-build.log

To set this up, you'll have to do something like this: 
mkdir -p /build/rb/etc/gconf
echo xml:readwrite:/build/rb/etc/gconf/ > ~/.gconf.path
gconftool-2 --shutdown

I hope that helps...
