I encountered the same thing--the explination is basically that having
Move work this way from the mouse binding is actually a bug, and the
proper way to do it is from a function using "I" (immediate.) Search
the message subjects for "'Move' only happens on mouse release" for the
thread where I asked about it.

I wrote a short awk script to automatically fix an fvwm2rc for the
lazy. It's attached to the thread I mentioned, but if you can't find
that I've also put it at http://themuffin.net/fvwm-mousecmd-convert.awk
