Here are some results of my evening investigation. I have no idea of GTK 
programming so these are only clues. Maybe some of you can use them to try to 
fix it.

Chunk of code from src/main.c:

static gboolean
side_frame_button_press(GtkWidget *widget, GdkEventButton *ev, gpointer data)
     {
     [...]
     if (ev->button == 2 || (_GK.m2 && ev->button == 1))
         {
         if (monitors_visible)
             {
             // show widgets
             if (direction == CLOSE_RIGHT)
                 {
                 gdk_window_move(gtree.window->window,
                                 x_gkrell - _GK.chart_width, y_gkrell);
                 }
             }
         else
             {
             // hide widgets
             if (direction == CLOSE_RIGHT)
                 {
                 gdk_window_move(gtree.window->window,
                                 x_gkrell + _GK.chart_width, y_gkrell);
                 }
             }
         }


Variable direction equals CLOSE_RIGHT if gkrellm window is on the right side of 
the screen. As you can see, gkrellm window is moved to the right during hiding.
Or at least it should be moved. In my case it won't be moved if it's placed at 
the right edge of screen. On my system I'm not able to move gkrellm window out 
of the screen and this code tries to do it. It appears that it doesn't matter 
that those widgets are hidden.

So, if anyone knows how to make gkrellm to be able to move out of the screen, 
please tell me. I'd appreciate it very much.
