I mean the outer border width as established by the window manager.

C - A might be the outer border width. But it might also include a left
scroll- or toolbar IIUC.
> The patch works for me with GTK, with internal-border-width
This surprises me because I don't see where internal-border-width is
handled in calc_absolute_offset. Is it because f->left_pos does already
account for the internal border width?

I think so.

ISTR two problems from the last time I looked into this: You cannot
always get C - A (or B - A) from the system and with fullscreen and
maximized frames A is occasionally less than zero.
