	 Epoch version 4.1 compiled on
	 Sun SPARCstation 1  (sun os 4.1) with the
	 /bin/cc C compiler that comes with the machine;
	 Running X11R5 and mwm

	 Nothing out of the ordinary.

	 EIGHTBIT_KEYBOARD is NOT defined.

	 Problem:  The using the meta-key hangs epoch.  Typing any key
	 while meta is held down (e.g., trying to move foreward by a
	 word with <meta>-f) causes epoch ignore all subsequent typing
	 and to ignore selecting "Close" from mwm's window menu.  (I
	 have to use the kill command.)

	 Using the escape key works as it should.

	 Meta works fine under the same configuration with epoch
	 4.0p2.

	 Any suggestions?
