I have the same problem with fvwm 2.4.x. Every time I install a new
package with dselect or with apt-get the fvwm get updated to 2.4.x.
and then I can't login, the error is the same with the fixed font.
I have to manually downgrade fvwm to 2.2.4 (hopefully I still have a
*.deb for that).

In my case:

1. I did not compile fvwm myself. I use the *.deb file from woody.
2. I use locale ro_RO.ISO-8859-16.
3. fvwm exits immediately.

I also have compatibilities problems because I use fvwm 2.2.4-2
instead of 2.4.6-2. fvwm recommends fvwm-common, xlibs conflicts with
fvwm-common. I think I need an older xlibs (I have 4.1.0-17).
But I can't find, for instance 4.1.0-14. I never can exit from the
dselect menu. I have to make a full upgrade and then "dpkg -i
fvwm_2.2.4-2.deb".

Thank you,
