7.0 doesn't have D_get_screen_window(); D_setup() uses R_get_window()
instead (R_get_window() reports the raster clip region, which is
initially set from $GRASS_FRAME).

Also, I would suggest reporting the values returned from D_get_u_*
rather than using the current region directly (which can always be
obtained from g.region).

Although the two should match, it's the values reported by D_get_u_*
which are actually used, so using D_get_u_* would be more robust in
the face of any future extensions (e.g. allowing the region to be
enlarged to fit the window rather than shrinking the window to fit the
region).
