I've got the fix ready, but it seems freedesktop.org is down (www & cvs
both) tonight.  I'll try again tomorrow morning, but it turned out to be
that we have to check for 3 things @ line ~482 of winmultiwindowwindow.c:
1. Not predefined in hints (preplaced w/-geometry or by the app)
2. No WM_TRANSIENT_FOR ATOM attached (for things like splash screens)
3. No pWin->overrideRedirect (undecorated)

Adding those 3 changes makes everything back to hunkey-dorey in emacs,
xterm, xfig, xfontsel, and xemacs.  The main app window is cascaded
but menus aren't touched.

Harold, I'll look at the always-on-top stuff once these are checked in...
