I tried it again, but couldn't get the behavior I claimed to have seen... :-( 

I could have sworn that's what I saw, but I've changed so many things 
on my system in the last 24 hours that it's pretty hard to know what's 
affecting what...  That, and I was playing briefly with the old xdm,
so maybe I wasn't running the version I thought I was when I saw the
problem "go away" :-( 

Sorry for the misleading info...
