Marco dies now and then when closing a window.

[Harald Hannelius]

Every now and then when I close a window marco dies. Luckily it gets restarted very quickly so I don't get thrown out of my session, the windows don't even have time to re-arrange themselves to one desktop.

This is getting progressively worse. Every two close of a window crashes the window-manager. So much so I had to create an icon for starting marco, since it isn't re-starting itself anymore. And every time it dies, all windows get shifted some tens of pixels downwards. It feels like sweatpants fighting against gravity.

It still dies on me sometimes when I close a window.
