centering a view inside of a container

When I center one view inside of another container view, using different
background colors for each (so that I can see any problems), I notice that
the contained view gaps slightly (a few pixels) from the left and top
margins of the container, but is flush with the right and bottom sides.  In
the VC, the contained view is sized the same as the container view.  I don't
see how this can occur, regardless of the layout.  All offsets are 0 @ 0.

Does anyone see how the left- and top-margin gapping below is possible?  I
recall an odd bug from years ago where there was a similar small gap of five
or so pixels involved, but don't remember the details.  I wondering whether
this is the same

Can you come up with an example of the problem.  I can't see it with this
simple test ...

s := Shell show.
s view layoutManager: BorderLayout new.
s view addSubView: (c1 := ContainerView new).
c1 backcolor: Color red.
c1 arrangement: #center.
c1 layoutManager: BorderLayout new.
c1 addSubView: (c2 := ContainerView new).
c2 backcolor: Color white.
c2 arrangement: #center
