Problem with "click-to-type" in epoch with Open/Look

My window manager (twm) is configured to use the mouse cursor to focus
window input, rather than click-to-type.  I used to have a problem with
epoch reverting to click-to-type behavior when an epoch window was
iconified by the window manager rather than by epoch itself, but a patch I
picked up some time ago fixed this behavior.  Recently, I've started
running an Open/Look application (still using twm), and have found that
after I've done a couple of things with it suddenly epoch once again
reverts to click-to-type!

Recently someone posted a similar problem with Open/Look interactions, but
I don't remember if there was a patch?  Is this list archived anywhere?

Thanks,
	Bob
