I've noticed this too but thought I had misconfigured something
or that it was related to sysutils/screen from where I was
switching back to X. Glad to see that others are affected by this
as well; so it's really a bug.

I think I'm getting bit by this as well, on:

X.Org X Server 1.4.0
Release Date: 5 September 2007
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0
Build Operating System: FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT i386

I'm seeing this on Debian GNU/Linux, with the same version of X, so it's
not a FreeBSD issue.
