Please find attached the configuration file requested on IRC, from an uptodate sid amd64 machine, where I'm able to reproduce the bug. A quick diff (yeah for XML!) shows that only the following items are different: ButtonLayout, SnapWidth, ThemeName, TitleFont, and WrapResistance. For the (possibly) interested reader needing the path, here it comes: ~/.config/xfce4/mcs_settings/xfwm4.xml Otherwise, that's mostly the same settings that I've got on my non-that-uptodate sid powerpc machine. I strongly suspect the “Activate focus stealing prevention” setting. ISTR I didn't use it during the last two months on that amd64 box, and that after having turned it up some days ago, I started to experience that strange gitk/xfwm4 behaviour. Mraw, KiBi.
