The second line already starts fvwm in foreground, don't put any other
lines into ~/.xinitrc except for maybe "sleep 3" in the middle.

The only thing you may do without debuging symbols is to verify that
"gdb -c core" says that "Core was generated by `/usr/bin/fvwm'."
Otherwise, you would run "gdb /usr/bin/fvwm core" and type "where" or "bt".
