Details:

When I run the following piece of code, the figure is displayed then
disappears and everything is frozen.


H = figure ();
pause (1);
set (H, "windowstyle", "modal");


It does work if there is no time between the creation of the figure and the
change to modal:


set (figure (), "windowstyle", "modal");


In the past, the figure used to flicker, which makes sense given the
implementation I could see in bug #48160.

It might be due to some peculiarities of my Linux system so I would be curious
to hear if others can reproduce it.
