1.6a		(90/05/09)	bugs

    BUGS CORRECTED:

      - bug in (pop-menu 'here) was preventing mwm sub-menus from working

      - No Imakefile in data/

      - deplibs added in Imakefile (hleroy@irisa.fr (Hugues Leroy))

      - compilation without -DUSER_DEBUG now works
	dacseg@uts.amdahl.com (Scott E. Garfinkle)

      - icon description evalution was done too early, prevented tracking
	changes of the icon name until the icon had been realized

      - bus errors were supposed to be trapped gracefully, but weren't
	Ray Nickson <Ray.Nickson@comp.vuw.ac.nz>

      - in multi-screen mode, gwm mixed decos between screens
	<eirik@elf.TN.Cornell.EDU>

      - mapping an already mapped leader of a group of windows could lead to
	problems. Alan Caroll <carroll@suna0.cs.uiuc.edu>

      - On gwm created menus, the property WM_CLIENT_MACHINE was of type atom
	instead of string. Carl Witty <cwitty@cs.stanford.edu>

      - bitmaps read from files could be offset.  Dana Chee <dana@bellcore.com>

      - replacing menu inside screen was letting borders out of screen. 
	Jay Berkenbilt <qjb@ATHENA.MIT.EDU> 

      - gwm could miss resize events while decorating windows
	Simon Kaplan <kaplan@cs.uiuc.edu>

      - bug in destroying placed menus fixed 
        Carl Witty <cwitty@portia.stanford.edu>

      - killing gwm by SIGTERM (kill without options) was doing an emergency
        exit, leaving windows not were they should be. Gwm now quits properly
	Jay Berkenbilt <qjb@ATHENA.MIT.EDU>

    STANDARD PROFILE:

      - icon-groups: new members always started iconic if leader had the
        "start as an icon" hint.

      - mwm profile: many bugs corrected by Gilles.Muller@irisa.fr

      - could have blank pixmaps in mwm icons. Dana Chee <dana@bellcore.com>

    CHANGES TO THE DOC:      None.
