Bug comments restored from Gmane.org:

When starting either Total Commander (http://www.ghisler.com)
SummaSummarum 
(best obtained through me), windows that should be in front, are created 
behind the main application window.  
  
Total commander, when unregistered, opens a nag-window where the user must  
press a certain key. This window is created as tha frontmost window under MS 
Windows, but behind the main application window under wine 20021125 (running 
Suse 8.1).  
  
SummaSummarum (accounting software) opens a window that lets the user decide  
which ledger to open. Like with total Commander, this is created behind the  
main window. there is also a very visible screen error, where a non-refreshing  
area is created just below the toolbar.  
 
Both programs were created with Delphi. 
  
Please contact me if you want elaboration or to obtain a copy of SummaSummarum  
(it is shareware, but the download site is in danish).I will also be happy to 
test updates for the prolems.

Errata: I have written that the dark blue and the dark grey bars are not 
shown. That is not correct, as they ARE shown, but between them and the 
horizontal toolbar, there is some slackspace when used under wine that is not 
there under ms windows. Could it be that the window height somehow is reported 
less than it actually is ?

There is the same problem in many application (new modal windows are created
behind main window), including many installers. I workarounded it with setting
wine to not use managed mode in wine.conf. Now everything works well. I tried
wine 20030115

so maybe that could lead to something.... (bug in managed mode?)
