I suggest the following modification to sloppy.c which prevents a
race-condition between sloppy and the window switch with C-t C-t by
checking the frame id of the to be selected window with the until then
selected frame.
Additionally it suppresses the error messages "not enough arguments"
if awk doesn't output something and therefore the select argument is
missing (on purpose, as in that case it should not select anything):

//printf ("%s\n", shell);
spawn (shell);
wait (NULL);
That way sloppy focus follows mouse works fine for me in ratpoison
without any race-condition. (I suggest to propagate this patch to
upstream, too.)
Regards, Axel
