       it's easier to get the message box back on top.

+      UPDATE: Had to restrict the use of MB_TASKMODAL to only when
+      MainFormOnTaskBar=False is set to work around *another* VCL issue.
+      The above problem doesn't affect MainFormOnTaskBar=True so that should
+      be fine.
+      Details: When MainFormOnTaskBar=True and MessageBox is called with the
+      MB_TASKMODAL flag after the main form is created but before the main
+      form is shown, the message box appears on the screen but you can't
+      interact with it using the keyboard; keys like Enter and Escape have no
+      effect. The problem? The CM_ACTIVATE handler in TApplication.WndProc is
+      calling SetFocus with a NULL window handle. This erroneous SetFocus call
+      is only reached when the main form window is found to be disabled, which
+      only happens when MB_TASKMODAL is used. As noted above, non-visible
+      windows aren't disabled when only DisableTaskWindows is used.
