FVWM: problem with configure.h + NoClass Patch

Hi Fvwmers,

I think configure.h should contain lines like
#define FVWM fvwm2
and
#define FVWM fvwm

rather than

#define FVWM fvwm2
and
#define FVWM fvwm

since the last ones cause errors during the installation. If I "make install"
on SGI, I get:
bsdinst -c fvwm2 /u/corse/0/devernay/sgi5/bin/ fvwm2
/etc/install: can't create fvwm2/fvwm2: Not a directory.
(the extra spaces come from the #define)



Also, I retried the "NoClass" patch by replacing the #if 0 and #if 1
in the code as follows and defining NOCLASSPATCH in configure.h:

diff fvwm/add_window.c ../../fvwm/fvwm/add_window.c
128c128
< #if 0

---
> #ifdef NOCLASSPATCH
135c135
< #if 1
---
> #ifndef NOCLASSPATCH
diff fvwm/misc.c ../../fvwm/fvwm/misc.c
198c198
< #if 0
---
> #ifdef NOCLASSPATCH
and everything seems to run OK here. Since this was disabled I guess
somebody experienced crashes because of that patch but I didn't get
any in several weeks of intensive use.  What kind of problem happen
with that patch and in what situation? I definitely _want_ titles on
my windows that have titles but no class.
