Hooray! Problem solved.

Bad news first:

I have no idea what (specific) change solved this problem (yet).

Good news:

I did a clean install of AmigaOS3.9 + Boing Bags 1+2.

No more "sticky" pointers or windows.

I kept a backup copy of the old AmigaOS install, and I'll do a
file-by-file comparison. One lib at a time, I'll swap them over until I
can reproduce the problem. Off the top of my head, the only "graphics
oriented" library that has changed is NewIcons. Remember that I said I'd
seen this phenomenon before on a "real" Amiga? Well it's coming back to
me now, I'm about 50% certain that NewIcons had something to do with it.

I'll let you know.

Oh, and as to the questions about Linux drivers and software versions:

XFree86-4.3.0-55
SDL-1.2.5-9
NVidia-driver-5336

Graphics cards NVidia TnT2/Ultra 32Mb
