I'm using Netscape-4.75 (I know its archaic) on a,

  uname -a: SunOS pez 5.7 Generic_106541-08 sun4u

In terms of this flickering (and it happens on all transient windows,
ALT-F (netscape's find) does it as well); the window pops-up and gets
raised and focused, then it seems as though it attempts to raise itself
one more time which end-up looking as though its a flicker.  In essence,
it redraws itself twice before becoming available.  Hope that helps.
Let me know if you want me to run any debug code.

I use FvwmWinList (reminds me of my old tvtwm days :-) and would only
like to list xterms (and alike) and so I also have the following entries
in my .fvwm2rc file

  Style "xterm"   Color white/gray64, NoIcon, WindowListHit
  Style "rxvt"    Color white/gray64, NoIcon, WindowListHit
  Style "mlterm"  Color white/gray64, NoIcon, WindowListHit
  Style "emacs"   NoIcon, WindowListHit

Thanks (do please CC)
