[Bug AWT/16739] New: BorderLayout tries to set negative sizes

["gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

In Acunia's layout.CardLayoutOverlay test, the following gtk assertion
failures are reported:

(:12329): Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtkwidget.c: line 5140
(gtk_widget_set_size_request): assertion `height >= -1' failed

This started occuring after calls to the deprecated
gtk_widget_set_usize() were replaced with gtk_widget_set_size_request().

The problem seems to be that in certain situations, when BorderLayout
calculates component sizes, it produces negative values.  This can
happen if the parent container's size has not been set yet.  We were
not seeing this before because gtk_widget_set_usize() doesn't have
such an assertion.  BorderLayout should never try to set negative
sizes for components.

I already have a fix for this which I'll be committing soon.
