SOmetimes (not always), when logging back on sawfish/gnome, the some (not all) of the gnome-terminal windows are not restored to the size they had previously -- they are much smaller.
When this occurs, if you logout (not saveing the session and logout) and log back in again, the terminal is restored properly.
I'm guessing Owen's Sawfish change on Aug 13 (disabling Sawfish size saving) will fix this. I can't reproduce it though, so who knows.
Bug not reproducable, possibly fixed, and old. Closing.
