Unmanaged window focus problem

[Brad Campbell]

G'day all,
I have been battling with this for a while and would appreciate
the guidance of someone who knows the x11 driver better..

At 
http://www.wasp.net.au/~brad/test3.tgz
there is a simple program that will demonstrate the error on 
wine with managed set to N in the config file.
File is compiled with Borland Delphi 4 and includes full source
for the paranoid/interested.

The problem seems to be the same as most dialog box problems I
encounter in managed or unmanaged mode.

The program opens a small form, then after 1 second it opens a second
form in modal format. The second form is focused above the first form
as it should be.
After another second the second form closes and the first form is again
focused correctly.
A third form opens and is given focus, but the first form remains the
top form where the third form should be on top.

In normal applications, particularly full screen ones, this means the
dialog box that gets opened and focused is underneath the main window
and can't be accessed. If I'm in unmanaged mode, usually I have to kill
wine from a console to get control back.

I have looked at a +x11drv,+timer,+message trace and found that when
the third form opens, it focuses correctly however something causes
the original form to then stack on top of the third form.

If I only use two forms, and open/close the second one twice this
does not occur. It only seems to happen when at least three diffenent
windows are present.

A good example.
You go to quit a program and it pops up a dialog asking you if you
want to save your work. When you click yes, the question dialog closes
and a save file selector opens. The save file selector is focused but
stacked underneath the main window and you can't get to it.
In managed mode I can get to it by windowshading the main window, but in 
unmanaged mode I'm stuck.

I have been poking around in dlls/x11drv/winpos.c but I'm having a bit
of trouble following things. Unfortunately C is not my native language
and so it's taking me a while to get a grasp.

Thanks for any pointers..
