Summary:                    Segfaults when using SeamlessRDP (-s/-A) inside a
tiling workspace
Description: 
Just tried to use rdesktop with the seamless RDP instructions from
http://www.cendio.com/seamlessrdp/.

* Get the server side component
http://www.cendio.com/seamlessrdp/seamlessrdp.zip
* Unpack to c:\bin
* rdesktop -A -s "c:\bin\seamlessrdpshell.exe notepad" terminal

When I invoke rdesktop with these options inside a tiling workspace
(managed by ion3), rdesktop temporarily opens three "SeamlessRDP restack
test" windows and then segfaults before opening the actual RDP connection
window for the Windows logon mask. Remote system is a Windows Server
2003R2.

$ pstack core
core 'core' of 23424:   rdesktop -A -s c:\bin\seamlessrdpshell.exe notepad
terminal
 08059fa1 ???????? (60000c, 60000d)
 0805a167 ???????? (1, 8046d60, 33, 80d5268, 3eb, 80d5268)
 0805d4f0 ui_create_window (804717c, 8047034, feffb818, 8046d00, fefcd5b2,
8046d98) + 424
 08058985 main     (5, 8047078, 8047090) + b85
 08057806 _start   (5, 80471e4, 80471ed, 80471f0, 80471f3, 804720f) + 7a

Running the same rdesktop command inside a floating workspace (where
windows can be arranged as with regular window managers) works fine, so it
seems rdesktop doesn't properly cope with the window placement/resizing
carried out by ion3. This might also pertain to other tiling window
managers like awesomewm, wmii, or xmonad (haven't tested this though).
