A warning message gets written to stderr ("Throwing away _XIM_PROTOCOL
message", together with the file name and line) if the program is run
with the '-fldebug' option set to at least 1. That's the way all in-
ternal warnings are dealt with, so I guess it's the proper way to do
it also here.

To me it looks a bit like a bug - but perhaps it's a feature;-)
I'm still looking what would be the best place to write to, per-
haps it's the "Bugsquat mailing list". If someone has a better
suggestion please let me know.

                         Best regards, Jens
