Okay, when I stripped everything down, I found the problem was someplace
else entirely. To reproduce, I used this configuration:
DestroyFunc StartFunction
AddToFunc StartFunction
+ "I" Module FvwmCommandS
+ "I" Module FvwmConsole
BugOpts RaiseOverUnmanaged true
Style "*" FPClickRaisesFocused
With this configuration, click inside the window area of nearly any
transient window (I say nearly because it didn't work with mozilla's
find dialog), and you should notice the flickering. The
RaiseOverUnmanaged bugopt seems to be what's causing the problem (as the
problem goes away when I remove it.)
If it's impossible to prevent the flickering while using this option, a
note in the man page might be helpful (I can live without the option if
this is the case, and enabled it only because I find unmanaged splash
screens annoying.)
The problem doesn't seem to be toolkit-specific, but it doesn't occur
all the time either. I reproduced the behavior using GTK1 (1.2.10-16;
preferences dialog in yank), GTK2 (2.4.1-4; preferences window in
Galeon, search window in gucharmap, attachment window in Evolution),
Motif (preferences dialog in Netscape Communicator 4.75), Xaw (from X
4.3.0.dfsg.1-4; resource box in editres), QT3 (3.2.3-2; print dialog in
Konqeuror), lesstif (Motif 2.1, lesstif 0.93.94-4; search dialog in
xpdf.)
Hopefully you'll be able to reproduce with at least one of the
toolkits/applications listed. ;)
