Thanks!

However, this did not make a difference! I checked the window levels. 
My main window has NSNormalWindowLevel, the NSRunAlertPanel has 
NSFloatingWindowLevel. Normally it should always be above the main win, 
but it is not. Could this be window manager related? I am using sawfish 
on the debian system! May be sawfish is so simple that it does not 
support different window levels.
