That depends on your window manager. If I do the same command, I get 'top
equal to 124, as the title bar is 24 pixels high and the window
manager (Compiz) puts the top of the title bar at 100. Other window
managers may choose to put the Emacs window at 100 and the title bar
above that. It isn't defined what a window manager should do.
I also checked that CDE's window manager behaves like Mac OS X's,
i.e., left/top frame parameters points to the title bar.
You mean one can specify the position of the top-left corner of the
title bar with the geometry specification, but that cannot reliably be
done with left/top frame parameters?
