I can reproduce this bug by performing "M-x
w3m-view-this-url-new-session" and "C-u C-u M-x w3m-view-this-url", but
it does seem to function correctly when performing "M-x
w3m-goto-url-new-session".

I can't reproduce this right now; I'm stuck on a non-gui system, and am
running emacs-nw.

That default behavior should be controlled by variable
`w3m-new-session-in-background', and you should be able to temporarily
change the default behavior by using the prefix argument `C-u'.

I'm not reproducing this.
