The new gwm update is out on expo. It fixes the re-entrancy problem with 
arup's twm emulator (fixed version included in the release)

Extract from the CHANGES file:

1.5.1.5 	(89/12/20)	bugs

    NEW FUNCTIONS:

      - x, y, gravity, borderwidth & borderpixel can now be set for
	meters in the "meter" function, which now returns previous values.

      - new "map-notify" event sent to window each time it is actually mapped
	on the screen. (needed for epoch)

      - new "reenter_on_opening" flag (default 1). Can be set to 0 during
	critical sections that cannot be re-entered (thus fixing a bug
	in the twm emulator).

    BUGS CORRECTED:

      - "window creep" on restart is fixed

      - menu-min/max-width were ignored when a plug made the menu resize

      - redecorating a window (by the menu) sometimes unmapped it

      - dlist package somewhat cleaned up (Gary Oberbrunner <garyo@Think.COM>)

      - 2 patches from dab@berserkly.cray.com (David Borman) for
        compiling with the buggy DEC BSD4.4 C compiler (with -DSTUPID)

    COMPATIBLE ENHANCEMENTS:

      - meters now grow & shrink (were only growing before)

      - december version of arup's twm package included.

      - process-events can take an argument to do a sync before
	processing events
