Kdrive has its own "geometry" parsing algorithm, the function
KdParseScreen() in file kdrive.c. I've extended it to include +X+Y parsing.
See my previous patch at
http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel/2014-February/040606.html

This patch supports -X-Y syntax, but I could simplify it by supporting
+-X+-Y only, so that the character + can be interpreted as the only
delimiter for window placement.
