Matthieu, peux-tu m'expliquer what this patch does before I apply it?

Yeah, it simply corrects a typo in sawfish code that prevents gdesklets (for example) to work nicely. Without it, gdesklets (or any program using the _NET_WM_STATE_BELOW hint) will always stay on top as they will be set to a layer position of +2 instead of -2.
