Hmm that is all kind of weird, first XDG_CONFIG_HOME was not in my 
enviroment, so i did got this correct. I also found that 
"$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/psppirerc" but was a file not a dir:

[find-dialog]
maximize=false
height=312
width=527
x=409
y=168

After resizing the windows  the file didn't change at all, neither did 
startup size and position. So i tried deleting it, but now it won't get 
created again.

Seems like this is more debugging task for my development installation 
of Ubuntu than a PSPP issue.

Lets better ignore it for now, as they obviously do some patching to 
Gtk&GNOME in Ubuntu and maybe things need to settle down here a bit.
