I don't have Emacs_22_BASE but the patch applied cleanly to window.el
in the released Emacs 22.1.  However, I see no difference to the
behavior without the patch: with mouse-autoselect-window set to t and
focus-follows-mouse set to nil, moving the mouse over a non-focussed
frame still changes the mode-line face and the tool bar of its
windows, just as in the focussed frame.
