FVWM: fvwm2 does not manage Rational RoseRT windows

I'm running fvwm2 2.2.4 on HP-UX B.10.20.
We're currently evaluating Rational RoseRT as a development tool and I've
been playing with this tool for 2 weeks now. I can't remember when I was
so frustrated by a tool. Most people here use CDE, but I use fvwm2 and
sloppyfocus or should I say I have used it. Can't get fvwm2 to deal with
the RoseRT window(s).
I'm experiencing similar problems to what Neil Bird reported last October.
   Subject: Windows-alike override-redirect issue A
   From: Neil Bird <neil.bird_at_rdel.co.uk>
i.e.
 - RoseRT window always stays on top
 - icon box is ignored
 - icon stays on top for a while and than all of a sudden is lowered (haven't
   figured out why) and I can't get it back to top
 - no usual frame, title etc.

in FAQ and in the message archive I found a note that setting either
  export MWWM=allwm
or
  export MWWM=MWM
should do the trick. But nothing changes at all.

So I'm trying to figure out the differences between his setup and mine.
I work under HP-UX and have an older fvwm version and there's one more
thing that may cause trouble: I have to start fvwm2 from a CDE session.

Appreciate any help and pointers.

Thanx Klaus
