Ah yes, though need your own sources.

But ... :-( ... I think it's bad juju in mwm.  When a client has both
WM_DELETE_WINDOW and WM_SAVE_YOURSELF (like emacs), mwm takes the
client's answer to WM_SAVE_YOURSELF as time to forcibly close
connection.  Sounds dubious, though there's sort of docs, and a comment
in its sources.  Could be long carry-over from the first icccm.
