I haven't used the autorouter with any designs that included polygons,
but I've never noticed any problems with clearances for manually drawn
lines (in 20060822 and the CVS version).

If I set clearance to 10 mil, the gap between the line and the polygon
is exactly 10 mil (I've just tried that with both PCB versions).

I'm also using PCB with metacity and the focus for subwindows works fine
for me (I'm using focus-follows-mouse mode. When the mouse is in a
window its titlebar is highlighted). Dragging them around also works.

What do you mean by "dragging the window title fails to move the
subwindow"? Do you think subwindows should move when you move the main
window?
