Hi all,

On Pungenday, the 16th day of The Aftermath in the YOLD 3163 it was said:

   Hmm.. thinking about this and discussing it with a friend of mine
   I am more confused as how this could've been a bug in fvwm or
   more generally a wm problem.

   Could any of your more experienced fvwm user/coders explain how
   this was related to a problem in fvwm and how it was fixed?

   Thanks in advanced!
