Not sure of the correct component for this, but it's not JavaScript Engine. 
Sending to DOM Level 0 for triage, since window.moveTo() is a DOM method -

WFM with current Windows trunk build. Is there a simpler testcase? This bug
wouldn't perhaps be that window positions on OS X are relative to the content
area, so moveTo(0,0) positions the titlebar offscreen," would it, now?
