What version of Red Hat and GNOME was that?

What window manager and theme?

I used Enlightenment and always had iconify, max, close
in that order in the top left. I think fvwm did it that way too.
Saw[fish|mill] followed that by default too.

You need a really strange them to get different widget placement
in the window manager.

The sawfish theme I'm now using, brushed-metal (like the E version:) ), 
has a menu in the top left on button1(left), and close on button3 (right).
