bug#3765: 23.1.50; frame behaves as `always on top'

[Sebastian Rose <sebastian_rose@gmx.de>]

Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:



An emacs frame behaves like `always on top'.

If I open emacs and a any other GTK-app window (gnome desktop on Debian
testing) and switch to another workspace and back, emacs is always the
topmost window, even if I pulled the other app to front before
(ALT-TAB). If the other window (e.g. gnome terminal) had the focus
before it keeps it.

The result is, that the emacs frame is always in the foreground when
switching back to it's workspace/desktop and sometimes has the focus,
sometimes not (depending which frame had the focus before I left that
workspace).




If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
/usr/local/share/emacs/23.1.50/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
