Bug#341536: xnest does not propagate window manager events



Package: xnest
Version: 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11

(My environment: sid/unstable
xserver-xorg: 6.8.2.dfsg.1-10
kdelibs: 4:3.4.3-2
)

When I start a window manager inside Xnest, changes to windows 
(raise/iconify/deiconify/resize) are not properly propagated (if at all).
The window itself behaves as if the event was handled through.

Steps to reproduce the problem: I used icewm inside a kde session. I had 
similar behaviour with "inner" window managers kde or twm, and without an 
"outer" window manager (plain X)

Steps to start a the window manager (as display ":3"):

  xterm #1:
  > xauth add $HOSTNAME/unix:3 . $(mcookie)
  > Xnest :3 -geometry 800x600

  xterm #2:
  > export DISPLAY=:3
  > icewm

Inside icmwm:

* Open two xterms
* Make them overlapping.

* Right-click title bar of lower window.
  Choose "raise"
=> The window dows not raise.

* Drag the window
=> NOW it raises.

OR:

* open an xterm
* resize the xterm
=> enlarged window is being clipped
=> border handles appear as if the window wasn't clipped
=> iconify/deiconfy cycle updates to correct size.
