Description of problem:
Resizing a Firefox window when running in third party Oracle Secure Desktop (fka Tarantella) causes window to shrink immediately to a width of 0 pixels, showing only a small portion of the window decoration, and none of the window content.
Window can't be maximized or re-scaled, Firefox disappears when window is resized.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
firefox-17.0.7-1.el5_9

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Firefox in a Secure Global Desktop session.
2. Grab lower right corner of window with a mouse click and drag to re-size.
3.

Actual results:
On starting drag gesture, window shrunk immediately to a width of 0 pixels, showing only a small portion of the window decoration, and none of the window content.  Window can't be maximized or rescaled.   On closing and restarting firefox, window remains at a height and width of 0.  Effect is that firefox disappears when window is re-sized.

Grabbing left or right margins rescales window to a width of 0 with current height.  

Grabbing bottom margin rescales window to height of 0 with current width.  

Grabbing any corner rescales window to height and width of 0.

Expected results:
Dragging the window with mouse click and drag gestures should allow the window to be re-sized to any arbitrary size.
