[wmii] Problem with resizing floating window

Dear List,

I have a problem with resizing floating window of a java application:
It can only be resized in a vertical, but not a horizontal direction.

The program I am using is called Imagej 1.38b:

Here is how to reproduce this behaviour:

        Start up Imagej in floating mode.

        Press ctrl-N to create new image + press return.

        Select rectangular area.

        Press ctrl-1, then ~10 times ctrl-2, finally ctrl-3.

A new window appears, called "Plots of Untitled": This window behaves
very strangely in wmii: It can only be resized vertically, but not
horizontally, even though its content is clearly larger, as can be
seen when this window put into managed mode.

I have not seen this problem with any other window of any other
application, although I don't use many programs that require floating
mode. Other window managers handle this particular window without any
problems. This problem exists in wmii 3.1 and wmii 3.5, freshly build
today.
