I see this as well. It only happens using internal lirc support. It has
been reported before on the list, with nothing but befuddlement as to a
cause. Some window managers are affected, others are not.
I have:
TWM as a window manager
QT 3.2.1
XFree86 Version 4.3.0.1
I've been seeing this problem since sometime after the .15 release.

Only happens after the frontend has spawned something external.
Cheers,
Allan.
