Since such option does not appear anywhere in the FvwmIconMan man page,
it is not configurable as of now.

If I understand you correctly, you don't like that FvwmButtons is
resized together with FvwmIconMan. Then you should fix the size of
FvwmButtons, something like this:

  *FvwmButtons: Geometry 548x57+0-0
  *FvwmButtons: Rows 5
  *FvwmButtons: Columns 68
  *FvwmButtons: BoxSize fixed
  ...
  *FvwmButtons: (14x5, Swallow FvwmIconMan 'Module FvwmIconMan')

You may even try to specify something like 14x5+10+10 in the last line.

As for FvwmIconMan, its geometry is configured using ManagerGeometry and
ButtonGeometry, but they may be ignored if conflict with the reallity.
For example if you specify "ManagerGeometry 2x5" this is equivalent to
"ManagerGeometry 2x0" if no ButtonGeometry is specified, but it may also
be equivalent to "0x5" if there is a place for 5 rows accourding to
ButtonGeometry and the actual FvwmIconMan size. Note that this is only
my experience, I have no time now to learn the source code.

Mikhael.
