On MS-Win, the window sizes (and positions) of gtk3-apps slightly change
as well after closing and restarting.

This is caused by GTK's "Client-Side-Decoration": After disabling it
by setting the environment var "GTK_CSD=0"(*), sizes and positions
are saved and restored correctly.


Maybe that's also the case on other systems/windowmanagers?


(*) Looks weird, creating an non-existent variable just to set
it explicitely to zero, but that's the way, the GTK expects it.
