I use debian unstable (up to date 18 Oct) and never encountered this behavior. You will have to narrow down the set of conditions that triggers this. You should recompile wmaker from source without any ./configure options and without any modification to wconfig.h Install it and create a new test user for which run wmaker.inst. Then try to see if the problem appears for that user. If not start adding all options you use 1 by 1 until the problem appears. If still don't start adding all the changes to the WindowMaker/dock/clip/WMWindowAttributes that you use for the user having the problem. Report back when you can narrow the problem down.
