FVWM: Success w/43 here too...

[FVWM][main]: Fvwm Version 2.0.43 compiled on Jul 14 1996 at 15:00:03
Linux LightHouse 2.0.6 #11 Sun Jul 14 14:31:13 CDT 1996 i586

A small suggestion, though:

The 'Dir' #defines would be helped, imho, if the following were used:

/***************************************************************************
 * The following line only needs to be uncommented if you do not want
 * Imake's default behavior.
 * Uncomment and edit to suit your requirements.
 ***************************************************************************/
/* #define FvwmPREFIX /usr/local/X11R6 */

#ifdef FvwmPREFIX
/* Where do you want the fvwm binaries installed */
#define FvwmBinDir FvwmPREFIX/bin

/* Where do you want the fvwm modules installed. */
#ifdef RenameFVWM2
#define FvwmDir FvwmPREFIX/lib/X11/fvwm2
#else
#define FvwmDir FvwmPREFIX/lib/X11/fvwm
#endif

/* Where do you want the fvwm libraries installed. */
#define FvwmLibDir FvwmPREFIX/lib

/* Where do you want the fvwm man pages installed */
#define FvwmManPath FvwmPREFIX/man
#define FvwmManSuffix 1

#endif /* FvwmPREFIX */

Notice this changes nothing from the current behavior (except correctly
handle the case if I don't rename fvwm to fvwm2 <grin>)...but does make
it considerably easier to change the default location...

My purpose in suggesting the above is threefold:

1) single line uncomment vs 5
2) singe line edit (in most cases) vs 5
3) get people used to the idea of a 'prefix', for easy introduction to
   autoconf's '--prefix=' command line option.
