If all values returned by GetClientRect are zero, it's all to obvious
that our windows won't fit.  But if, for example, rect.right - rect.left
is too small to fit our windows, we face a similar same problem and have
to handle that anyway.  So I'm not sure whether we should separately
deal with the case where all rectangle values are zero.

I thought it's not needed because in required_matrix_width we use the
pixel width when HAVE_WINDOW_SYSTEM is defined.
