Panther's X11 has the "feature" of terminating when the last program in
your xinitrc terminates. So just remove the & from the end of the
quartz-wm lines and you'll be fine. Other alternative solutions to
this problem (modifying the default using the defaults command, and
having X11 termination depend on an another application than quartz-wm)
were discussed a short while ago on this list (Apple X11 Users). If you
look through the archives you should be able to see them.

Any ideas?

Generally speaking, all you have to do to remove fink is:
sudo rm -rf /sw
and remove any lines added for fink from your .*rc files in your home
directory (such as the standard "source /sw/bin/init.csh").
To remove X11:
sudo rm -rf /etc/X11
sudo rm -rf /usr/X11R6
...as well as removing X11.app, or other X server you may be using.
Again, there may be associated X11 config files (such as .xinitrc) in
your home directory that you may want to delete if you want to start
completely fresh.
That's it. You can then install Apple X11 1.0 that comes with Panther
(which is a custom install) as well as Xcode (Developer Tools). Be
sure to install the X11 SDK that comes with Xcode if you need it.
Then you can install the download and install the latest fink
(currently 0.6.1), and then 'fink selfupdate(-cvs,-rsync)' and 'fink
update-all' as appropriate.

I am about to install Panther and want to get rid totally of fink
and X11 and start from a new install.
What is the easiest way to remove all previous fink and x.11
installations?

Whoops, I misunderstood. The very few instances when I have a pop
up window, it brings itself and it's parent to the front with
focus. I have no clue where to go from here, so I'll kick this
back to the list (I forgot to "reply all" first time).

I can't activate a window or panel by doing a click with the
left mouse button.
It's not a bug, it's a feature. :)
X11 has quite a few variations on how windows react to mouse
events. For instance, I have blackbox and have it set for
"sloppy focus". For windows come into focus (pressing the keys
causes the letters to show up in that window) with a mouse over -
but do not come to the front. it takes a little getting used to,
but I really like it that way. To get a window to come to the
front I click on the frame - clicking inside the window is
ineffective. It's not a bug, it's just the way the focus
preferences are set up.
What you want to look at are the preferences for Focus Models. I
don't know where in KDE configuration or controls it is, but I'm
pretty sure you've got options for it.
hope that helps.
