I did a quick tests of many of the window managers shipping with
Debian 3.0.  I fired up a mozilla 1.1 window and pressed F11 to
resize it to full screen mode and back.  Results:

  x = Crashes, does not move the window or shows very strange
      behaviour
  i = ICCCM compliant
  n,w,nw,se = Window travels in the given direction
  - = not tested

On a "legacy" wm, the window should travel nw.  In no particular
order:

 -  sawmill
 -  kwin
 -  mwm (could not find it)
 x  aewm
 x  aewm++
 i  9wm
 i  larswm 
 x  lwm
 x  amiwm (only resizes, dow not move)
 x  afterstep (hangs)
 n  blackbox
 n  icewm
 nw enlightenment
 x  ctwm
 w  flwm (very strange)
 nw gwm
 i  olvwm
 i  olwm
 x  pwm
 se qvwm
 i  sawfish
 nw twm (strange behaviour)
 nw uwm
 i  vtwm
 i  w9wm
 i  wm2
 x  wmaker
 nw fvwm
 --------------
  8 x
  8 i
  5 nw
  4 n/se/w
