Sawfish doesn't have a taskbar.  It doesn't have anything except a root 
menu and a lisp environment.

Are you sure you're not talking about gnome-panel?  Switch the wm by going 
into gnome's control center.  Under advanced, open the session properties. 
Remove metacity from the current session and click apply.  All the borders 
will disappear from the windows.  Go to gnome panel's foot menu and select 
run application.  Type '/usr/bin/sawfish'.  When you log out, remember to 
save your session.
