Background info:  Using X11R4  Xt & Xaw

I have an X client that is basically a "current configuration" display. 
Whenever
the configuration changes, the client is sent a signal (SIGUSR1) to reread the 
configuration and update the display.

Problem:  Although the client is getting the signal, the client display isn't
          updated until the client receives pointer focus.

BTW,  this worked at X11R3


Please respond via e-mail and I'll summarize if there's interest.
