After looking again at the code, I must correct my above statements: now
I think, that it's not the native Windows function SetForegroundWindow
that is calling the recursive behaviour.

It's still the already existing code in the function
winReorderWindowsMultiWindow that is causing recursive behaviour: in
this existing code the function ConfigureWindow is invoked (this is not
a native Windows function, it seems to be some x server function). So
the invocation of this function is triggering the x server to invoke
winRestackWindowMultiWindow recursively.

But these are still theories. At least the recursive behaviour is not
introduced by the patch, it was already there in the existing coding ;-)

Best regards,
Oliver
