This is sort of a heads-up, if other people have seen the problem.

Twice in the last two days, a user has some into sipb to complain that
an sgi has wedged on them.  In both cases, the system was still
responding to the network (the console would pop up, zephyrs would
appear, etc), but the cursor was grabbed by something.  

Also, in both cases, there was a 4dwm menu on the screen, so I believe
there's some sort of race which is causing 4dwm to grab the cursor,
and not give it back.
