Works as expected for:

  * metacity
  * ratpoison
  * fvwm
  * when it's the only thing X runs

And it had worked yesterday with the StumpWM I had compiled then with
SBCL 1.0.6 - unfortunately that crashed a lot so I fetched the source
again and this time compiled it with CLISP 2.4.4 early this afternoon.
[`male' on #stumpwm suggested that the crashing was probably because
of SBCL threading, and recompiling seems to have fixed that problem]
So I couldn't tell if maybe it was a (very) recent change or maybe it
was an SBCL vs. CLISP thing.  Or something else completely...

I've not had a problem with any other program.  I don't know if it
means anything, but the following terminal programs run fine:

  * aterm
  * Eterm
  * rxvt-unicode
  * xvt
