This is a different question about xmodmap.
If we have any windows up (except one xterm) and run xmodmap it seems
to kill some windows at random.  Therefore, and because it makes sense
anyway, we run xmodmap before starting any other clients.

Does anyone know why clients would die just because keycodes are being
remapped?
