Issue 180: In focus-follows-mouse mode, the wrong window gets focused
http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=180

New issue report by Klaus.Weidner:
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Have at least 3 windows on the screen at the same time
2. Move the mouse pointer from the first window through the second one to
the third one very quickly
3. Check which window has focus

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expect the third window to have the focus, but depending on how fast the
mouse was moving, the focus may be stuck in one of the intervening windows.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

xmonad current darcs version, on Linux

Please provide any additional information below.

The "windows" function in XMonad/Operations.hs calls clearEvents with
enterWindowMask to delete pending events. This is appropriate if the
windows get reshuffled, but it leads to the unexpected behavior described
above if xmonad lags behind the current events and clears the pending
enterWindow events.
