You forgot to say that you use the cvs version.

I can reproduce this problem, i.e. ClickToFocus does not set GrabFocus,
although I see in the code it does set.

There is a more serious problem. With SloppyFocus/MouseFocus, GrabFocus
only works now when the pointer is on the root and not in the window.

Mikhael.
