Ah, yes it indeed compiled successfully :)

Yes. For example - before this patch using Kmail in Windowmaker and selecting 
in menu Settings -> Configure Kmail... would result in configure window being 
placed basically somewhere outside of anything (for quite some time I thought 
Kmail was freezing); selecting it via middle click on root window brought it 
back however. With this patch there are no more problems with misplaced 
windows - the Configure window from example shows on top of desktop. I'm 
running Windowmaker 0.92 on amd64 now with this patch and the above one that 
made it compile successfully so I'd say include it please :)
