If I use the "Destroy Window" of the TWM window manager to destroy
a client window I usually get an XIO error:
	fatal IO error 32 (Broken pipe) on X server "......"

Did ever anybody attempt to modify client programs to handle the
destroy action of a window manager? I looked in the ICCCM document
(version 1.0) and found a section on window deletion. It mentioned 
to use WM_DELETE_WINDOW in the WM_PROTOCOLS property. However,
I did not find anything on this property in the remaining X documentation.
