Hmm. I've just tried to reproduce the issue by compiling tmux 1.8 myself.
On my PPC/Debian system it supports focus reporting as expected and does 
not switch it on by default. It both passes through window focus and 
generates its own focus report if switching panes, but *only if* enabled 
in the respective pane.
I don't see any configuration option which could have affected that, either.
The behaviour you described cannot be observed; it could be observed, 
obviously, if you enable focus reporting explicitly, or run an 
application that does so (like my editor mined) and kill it with kill -9 
(so it cannot reset it).
Otherwise I don't observe your problem. Please check again, is there any 
other source of getting the reports enabled in your environment? Do you 
enable it in your .profile or .bashrc?
