The first three times I tried that it failed because metacity restarted 
before sawfish started.

The fourth time it worked.

Apparantly, however, my troubled user went and put in their own private 
installation of IceWM (which I haven't tried or seen personally) which 
allegedly is playing nicer with Gnome than sawfish was, and does all the 
little things he wanted. *sigh* He understands that he's now officially 
unsupported and on his own.

I've decided I like the alt+click to raise a window better than the 
'original' click-to-raise, because it doesn't pass the click through to 
the underlying application (which often caused trouble).
