Hm. Most X servers (XFree86, for example) don't allow 0x0 windows.
However, I don't see any reason why Wharf should have trouble swallowing
such a window, since the placement calculations don't do any divides by
the window width.
Perhaps the problem is that you're using AfterStep-1.7.145, which
misplaced 64x64 windows when MaxSwallowing? If so, upgrade. This problem
is fixed in 1.7.142 patch 4.

>From the Wharf man page:
*WharfWithdrawStyle style
Specifies the circumstances under which button 3
should cause the Wharf to withdraw to a corner. If
style is 0, button 3 will do nothing. If style is 1
(the default), a click on any button in the
toplevel bar will cause Wharf to withdraw to the
nearest corner. If style is 2, a click on either
the first or the last button in the toplevel bar
will cause the withdrawal.
Hope this helps.
