XWin in Multiwindow mode - window opens up 8 pixels from the left

Hi,

I've noticed that if I start XWin in -multiwindow mode:
xwin -multiwindow
And then open up a window in what should be the top-left corner of the screen:
$ xlogo -geometry 2048x1152+0+0
The window instead opens up 8 pixels from the left:

I am not sure if this is intentional behavior of the internal window
manager, or a bug. Either way, I thought I would mention it.

It does not occur in Rootless mode.
