I am runnign X11R4 under SunOs 4.1.  When I make a call to XGrabPoiter I get
the following X error message:

X windows Protocol error: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
     Major opcode of failed request:  26
     Minor opcode of failed request: 0
     Resource id in failed request: 0x8038
     Serial number of failed request: 553


Here's the actual call:
 XGrabPointer(dpy, menu->menuWindow, FALSE,
      ButtonReleaseMask | EnterWindowMask | LeaveWindowMask | ExposureMas k,
      GrabModeAsync, GrabModeAsync, None, None, CurrentTime);

This problems only occurs when the menu is in its own top window, and when
I am running X11R4 in not in bug compatibility mode.  It works in X11R3 and
X11R4 in bug compatibilty mode.  

Any help will greatly be appreciated.
