Xfwm unfortunately handles utility windows differently from most other
window managers. See the GIMP manual for a way to work around the problem:

http://docs.gimp.org/en/gimp-pimping.html#gimp-prefs-window-management

Setting both hints to "normal window" should work.

As far as I know the window management specification is vague on this,
and many other, subjects. Which leads to programs and people disagreeing
on which window types should be used for which purposes.
