[comp.emacs] Problem with GNU Emacs and OpenWindows olwm

I seem to have a problem running GNU EMACS 18.55 under OpenWindows.  I've
compile the X support into EMACS and it works for almost all cases.  I'm 
running owlm and the problem that I am having is that if I select on the
resize corner with the middle mouse button, the server freezes (I cannot
use any other windows, although the mouse is still active).  If I login
to the machine from another workstation and kill emacs, then everthing
start working correctly again.

I know that the middle mouse button is not used when resizing and I know
one solution is to "don't do that".  My question is, has anyone else seen
this problem?

BTW, I'm running EMACS on a SparcStation 1 with SunOS 4.1.1, and OpenWindows
2.0.

Also, I've ftp'd a copy of Epoch 3.2 and built it.  This also seems to have
the same problem.

Thanks in advance.
