A particular java-based application I use frequently (Maple)
does not work well in fvwm.   I use focus-follows-mouse, but
when I move the mouse into the application it does not 
get the focus (the window is selected, but keystrokes do nothing).
The java application has (from fvwm-ident):

Focus Policy:      Globally Active
  - Input Field:   False
  - WM_TAKE_FOCUS: Present 

To get the application to respond to the keyboard, I have to select a
menu item.

Is there a way to fix this?  Is this an fvwm-specific issue?
The focus works fine if I use the application in Gnome desktop
(configured with focus-follows-mouse).
