Related to an earlier bug, discussed here: http://forums.rptools.net/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=9823, and stemming from discussion in the Announcements forum about the new b58 release.
In b58, if you have the Tables window open or the Initiative panel open when you close MapTools, the window layout will reset to the default. This does not occur unless one or both of those specific windows are open at the time you exit MapTools.
Edit: it may not be so cut-and-dried - apparently, if the Init panel is tabbed with another window, one user did not experience a layout reset.

Re: [1.3.b58] Init Panel / Tables window causes layout reset
Confirmed on OS X 10.5.8, and some further behavior that I've noticed: whether the layout gets reset depends on the version of MapTool that is opened, not the version that is closed. For example (all closures were done with the Init panel open so as to trigger the b58 bug):
b57 closed -> b58 opened: Layout forgotten.
b57 closed -> b57 opened: Layout maintained.
b58 closed -> b57 opened: Layout maintained.
b58 closed -> b58 opened: Layout forgotten.
b57 closed -> b58 opened: Layout forgotten.
b57 closed -> b57 opened: Layout maintained.
b58 closed -> b57 opened: Layout maintained.
b58 closed -> b58 opened: Layout forgotten.
