This seems like some kind of bad interaction between the XFilterEvent
machanism and the Shade (Shrink to Title bar) feature of the window manager.
Maybe you should print out the type of XClientMessage to check what has
been filtered:

	XNextEvent(&ev)
	if (XFilterEvent(&ev)==Filtered) {
		if (ev.any.type==ClientMessage)
			dump_clientmessage(&ev);
		continue;
	}
