No, it's running under my user. I *can* get it working if I play with
xhost (or, presumably xauth), but since these involve having access to
the display already, I can't do this to the copy which is currently
displaying the bug.
Actually, I've managed to get a copy of wmii running and displaying the
bug, while adding "xhost +localhost" to wmiirc. This fixes the access
problem. Now I find that the modmaps are definitely the same, since
$ diff <(xmodmap -pm -display :0) <(xmodmap -pm -display :2)
shows no differences. :0 is the correctly working instance, and :2 is
the newly broken instance.
Note: I acheieved the bug this time by randomly changing the wmiirc, and
just to show it really is totally random, the thing which set the bug
off in this case was changing the colours from the default to the acme
colours. This *really* shouldn't have any effect!
What a weird bug.
It seems likely to me that the changes are not even necessary but restarting
your wmiirc causes the problem. I can't even begin to guess how to duplicate
this, but it's likely that the problem no longer exists in tip since much of
the code that it would involve has been completely rewritten.
