Location of cloned stack

This is a curiosity question.  OS X 10.4.6 and Rev 2.7.1.  My  
application contains a substack which I clone as needed for a  
multiple windows.  I had thought a cloned stack inherited all of the  
properties of the original (other than it's name) but for some  
reason, the location of my cloned stack is apparently unrelated to  
the original stack's location.

I was was starting to look at this issue because I was going to  
create some code to do offsets for new windows but the problem became  
critical with 2.7.1 however because with the new version (I don't  
think anything else changed), the cloned window is appearing with its  
top at -33 which of course means the title bar is under the menu bar  
and of course, the window can't be moved by the user outside the  
development environment.

Obviously, this is a minor problem as I can move the window in my  
preOpenStack handler where I do the staggering code but I'm curious  
as to why this is happening?  Bug? or am I missing something?
