Try using this instead, and see if it helps:

(setq auto-mode-alist
      (append '(("\\.[A-Za-z]*wm$" . winmgr-mode)
                ("\\.[A-Za-z]*wmrc" . winmgr-mode))
                auto-mode-alist))

Parantheses must balance in emacs lisp. It appears that you have given
append only one argument.
