Yes, "fixed" with GNOME 2.10
Now, how do I revert it back to the old behaviour, because I find not
getting my GAIM messages pop-up to be something that negates

So you want a toggle switch so users can choose suboptimal behavior A or
suboptimal behavior B?
While sometimes we need to settle for that, it's not the default
solution.
In this case I think something like this will fix it:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=120439
I would like to see this done and backported to our 2.10 libwnck
package.
or something like this thing someone mentioned is another option:
http://guifications.sourceforge.net/Guifications/
Or even simpler, gaim could be hacked to always grab focus or have an
option for same, though I wouldn't advocate that.
If these 3 things were hard to implement maybe we'd want a stopgap
solution, but any or all of these fixes could be completed in a matter
of a couple days. (so hint hint, someone should just do it, there's no
point having a big mailing list argument ;-)
