Bug#593354: fldigi vs. xmonad: still a problem in fldigi 3.22.x?

Hi Mike and other fldigi+xmonad users:

Please test this bug (again!) with fldigi version 3.22.10-1, which contains a possibly-relevant fix. This start-up crash bug[0] resulted the fixing of a long-standing bug in the fldigi window start-up order code, which might affect the behavior reported here.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Kamal and maintainers,

I'm on jessie on amd64, fldigi 3.22.01-1 and xmonad 0.11-9.

It is pretty easy for me to reproduce the bug. All I need to do
is have a workspace in the Tall mode, have a couple other apps
windows open, position fldigi in the large space to the left,
open the Signal Browser from the menu, and it's stuck.

Making xmonad float all the windows of class Fldigi seems to
prevent the problem, as previously mentioned.

Nearly all of my Linux programming experience is non-GUI,
so I'm not sure I'm in a position to fix this myself, but
I am perfectly happy to help test fixes, etc.

Thanks,
Mike, AG6ET
