Inconsistency is the name of the game with the Microsoft SDK.

An excerpt from some of my own code:
	// Figure out what the new size of the window should be, taking
	// into account things like menus and title bars, etc.
	GetWindowRect(hOutputWnd, (LPRECT) &CurrentWndRect);
	WndRect.left = WndRect.top = 0;
	WndRect.bottom = image_descriptor.height;
	WndRect.right = image_descriptor.width;
	AdjustWindowRect((LPRECT) &WndRect, WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW, TRUE);

	// Resize the window to accomodate the new image size.
	MoveWindow(hOutputWnd, CurrentWndRect.left, CurrentWndRect.top,
		abs(WndRect.right - WndRect.left),
		abs(WndRect.bottom - WndRect.top), TRUE);

It is perfectly normal for AdjustWindowRect() to return negative values
for top and left.
