Are you using an older version of MacPerl? I used to see (and once
reported) this problem in the past, but I can't reproduce it with recent
versions, so I assumed Matthias must have fixed it.

Deleting the MacPerl preferences will restore the window to its default
position, but that's not perhaps ideal (since you lose your library paths
and everything else as well).

A possible workaround might be to install Kaleidoscope or Aaron, which have
the useful side-effect (over and above their UI prettifying function) of
making windows draggable by their borders. This can be quite valuable when
you're dealing with badly-behaved applications that don't do sanity checks
before placing windows.
