Under 4.1.1 (I think ) i did encounter a couple of similar problems
which cleared up after applying one of the CIV patchsets.  I think
that they were related to the use of the caps lock key to restrain
the mouse inside the CIV window which the one of the patches (to
1.2) changed to ctrl-g instead.  Anyway I've not noticed any further
wierdness for a while (on the other hand I run X as a click to
focus where as I almost take your phrasing to imply follows mouse)
