First, thanks to everyone who replied to my earlier yelp for help with
Epoch and OpenLook 3.0, SunOS 4.1.2.  I think I've tracked down the problem.

The problem is minibuf.el, which I was using under Epoch 3.2.  If in
load it in my .emacs, then BOTH Epoch 3.2 and 4.0 exhibit the
anti-social behavior I mentioned earlier (i.e., it tries to gobble up
all available cycles, and encourages the X server to do the same).
Minibuf also had a problem in this configuration in that the
minibuffer *always* came to the top, no matter what window on the
desktop the cursor was in.

Does anyone have any explanation for this behavior?  Is there a
revised minibuf.el, perhaps, that works around it?

Thanks in advance!

P.S. Recompiling everything under SunOS 4.1.2, rather than 4.1, made
     no difference.
