I don't see this problem here with or without cairo, but as with all
bugs related to grabs this is inherently difficult to reproduce.

Please put a breakpoint on line 2879 of xlwmenu.c and tell me what
XtGrabPointer returns.  Make sure to do this from another machine, since
grabbing will not work if you switch windows or click anywhere else.
