Bug#315501: metacity: new windows don't show up on top since upgrading to 2.10

[jeff]

Package: metacity
Version: 1:2.10.1-2
Severity: normal


Most noticeable when opening a link in firefox from thunderbird or
gnome-terminal.  Worked as expected pre 2.10 but now the new windows open
up just behind the current window.
