I believe that some applications change the event mask to inhibit mouse up
events and then do not reset the event mask to everyEvent.  The Finder does
not seem to do this when it starts up so things like double clicks cease
to function.

I guess I could try to write a little test program to see if this is really
the problem ......:-).
