I was initially excited about this, because I have been having the
same problem.  However, the fix isn't working so well for me.

* If I'm in an X Emacs window, then click back in my X term, the focus
is still with the X Emacs window.

* If I go from my X Emacs window to a Windows application then my
Xterm, focus moves to the Xterm.

I'm running Windows 7 with the mouse setting that makes window active
simply by moving the mouse into that window.  Neither by moving the
mouse, nor clicking in my Xterm, does that window become active.  I
have to switch to a Windows app along the way.
