No. IMO it's a bug in the interaction between emacs and the window manager.
With my version of emacs "22.0.50.1", and with my window manager
(WindowMaker), it works as you want.
You could use:
(defvar fpx-compensation 0)
(defvar fpy-compensation -1)
(setq fpx (cdr (assoc 'left (frame-parameters))))
(setq fpy (cdr (assoc 'top (frame-parameters))))
(setq fpx (+ 1 fpx fpx-compensation))
(setq fpy (+ 1 fpy fpy-compensation))
(set-frame-position (next-frame) fpx fpy)
