Zack,
I tried with kernel 2.2.1 and fvwm 2.0.46, saw the problem. I don't
know why it causes a problem with 2.2.1 and not with 2.0.X, something
to do with malloc maybe. But I found a way.
It takes only one line change. It is easy enough to do with your
editor.
Find the line in FvwmCommandS.c
SendText(Fd,"",0); /* tell fvwm that we are here */
Change it to the below by adding a space.
SendText(Fd," ",0); /* tell fvwm that we are here */
That should do.
