FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
1.3.1_09, 1.4.1, 1.4.2, 1.4.2_03

ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Debian Linux, RedHat Linux, Sparc Solaris.

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
When a modal dialog freezes its parent window, it is still possible to close the frozen window using the close button of the window manager. Note that on Microsoft Windows, the close button is as frozen as the rest of the window.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Run the attached code, and follow the given directions.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
Mouse click on the close button of the parent window of the modal dialog, should be ignored, as the modal dialog is there. On Microsoft Windows, the mouse click event is filtered.
ACTUAL -
But on X11, the mouse click event is passed to the application, violating the whole principle of modal windows.

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

        button1.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
            public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                dialog.setVisible(true);
