For the Cocoa port (unsure about Carbon), screens throughout are
currently considered separate display areas; dimensions reported for
this and other x-display- functions correspond to the screen the frame

are) if this information is not given.  (Other behaviors are possible,
but not necessarily preferable.)

On the Mac (or GNUstep) there is no auto-placement of windows.
