See gtkStatusIconPositionMenu for a more convenient
alternative for positioning menus.
Note that some platforms do not allow GTK+ to provide
this information, and even on platforms that do allow it,
the information is not reliable unless the status icon
is embedded in a notification area, see
gtkStatusIconIsEmbedded.
