DrRacket ignores bugn window manager on Win8

[Geoffrey S. Knauth]

This is not important, just a curiosity.

When I'm on a Windows platform, I use bugn, a tiling window manager, a
bit like xmonad. For some reason, DrRacket pays no attention to bugn's
directives to change size, monitor, decoration.

I'm more happy though that I can use DrRacket to get my work done
faster.

If you start up Racket.exe from the command-line and paste in these
two forms at the prompt:

(require racket/gui/base)
(send (new frame% [label ""]) show #t)

does the resulting window obey the commands?

If it doesn't, that means there is some low-level connection that's
not happening properly. If it does, that means that probably DrRacket
is itself rejecting the requests, possibly because they were asking to
make the window too small or something like that? (Or some confusion
at a higher-level along those lines.)
