Weeeeell, there are two (related) problems I haven't figured out yet. You
can see them in action, when/if you start X11 with only a (naked) terminal.
That's how I usually go into X, then start the actual window manager by hand
(depending on mood, time of day, and constellation of Orion, ...).
If you start IWM (having the patches applied as they are) the initial
terminal will be mapped - and disappear.
Uncommenting XUnmapWindow() in -scanWindows will prevent that - but
IWM will dump core (I believe it was a SIGSEGV) ... {c: Starting IWM from
your .xinitrc/.xsession works fine in both cases.

Those patches where whipped up in a few minutes, as they were sorta
obvious but didn't have the time to really look into it (at that time)
Maybe tonight.

Btw, in MappedNotOverride(), it should read

  Atom
    _XA_WM_STATE = [GlobalIWM atomNamed: @"WM_STATE"],

Why not put the IWM* directories under src/ as well? If anything
it would look 'cleaner'.
