Thanks for the reply.

You are right - if I select single window mode the Script-Fu dialog appears on
top and still appears on top after disabling single window mode - until I
terminate GIMP; the next time GIMP is run the dialog is not on top again.

This procedure also messes up the dimensions of the tool-box (that I have on one
monitor) and the main editing window (that I have on a second monitor) - the
cure is therefore nearly as much of a pain as the problem ;¬(
