I've had some form of the same problem since RH6.0 and icewm 1.0.X (can't
recall exactly when, but it's been several versions). I just lived with it
and worked around it since I haven't had time to work on investigating it
any further.

In my case it also happens when I move from one virtual desktop to
another, where the top term or whatever should already have focus in the
new window. It used to leave focus on the last desktop I was on, but I
haven't noticed it doing that for some time now.
