Hi Matthew,
thanks for testing! I sill suspect there is a bug i ctwm as it
works fine in twm, see below.

Frank Steiner, and lo! it spake thus:
The 3rd/5th/7th...ctrl+left mouse button click it will work again,
the 4th/6th... will show the icon.
In a little testing, I can't reproduce it here; always seems normal
for some Ctrl-<mouse,kbd> bindings for me. You could try playing with
xev and see if the second click has a different state flag; maybe your
environment is doing something surprising?
xev looks fine until ctwm takes control of this combination:

Looks reasonable for "Press Ctrl, click left button, release left button,
release Ctrl".
But as soon as I define
Button1= c:window :f.exec "true"
in .ctwmrc and restart, the first Ctrl+Click looks like this:

It looks like ctwm turns the mouse click into some keymap event
and hides the mouse click from xev. I suspect it's a bug in the
first click that the ReleaseButton shows up, because I tried the
same with twm. And there every click looks like this:
KeyPress event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x5800001,
root 0x295, subw 0x0, time 701969827, (6,91), root:(843,526),
state 0x0, keycode 37 (keysym 0xffe3, Control_L), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XFilterEvent returns: False
LeaveNotify event, serial 32, synthetic NO, window 0x5800001,
root 0x295, subw 0x0, time 701970086, (6,91), root:(843,526),
mode NotifyGrab, detail NotifyAncestor, same_screen YES,
focus YES, state 260
EnterNotify event, serial 32, synthetic NO, window 0x5800001,
root 0x295, subw 0x0, time 701970195, (6,91), root:(843,526),
mode NotifyUngrab, detail NotifyAncestor, same_screen YES,
focus YES, state 4
KeymapNotify event, serial 32, synthetic NO, window 0x0,
keys: 4294967189 0 0 0 32 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
KeyRelease event, serial 32, synthetic NO, window 0x5800001,
root 0x295, subw 0x0, time 701970434, (6,91), root:(843,526),
state 0x4, keycode 37 (keysym 0xffe3, Control_L), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XFilterEvent returns: False
Thus I guess in the first/3rd/... click in ctwm the ButtonRelease event
slips through, and then in the 2nd/4th/... click the keys line in the
KeymapNotify event is wrong.
