because of an environment variable the adminsys set which had some
miscoding.  Fixing the variable, plus the line quit>exit, everything
went fine, thanks a bunch!

With the latest Git, I still have the occasional crashes with the fast
switch (a resounding CLFSWM Error: The value 3 is not of type (OR NULL
SIMPLE-VECTOR)..), and I still have the focus problems with the popup
term.  Should you need any more infos on that, I can provide them.

Happy hacking;
