Nikolay elaborated on that in a private message to me. Here is the
problem rephrased:

1. have dwm running
2. mouseclick on a tag to view it. works.
3. switch to alternative keyboard layout (crt-shift for him)
4. mouseclick on a tag to view it. doesn't work.
5. switch back to default keyboard layout
6. mouseclick on a tag to view it. works again.

I could reproduce it with different distribution and xkb options here:
with -layout "us,bg", with -layout "de,bg", -layout "us,de". Same
behaviour. Never run myself into this before, because I hardly use
mouse to switch tags.
