But what is your fvwm version?

Seems like your awk is not very friendly. I think that I tested awk
without GNU extensions and it worked. Anyway, either don't load
colors_at_cde and colors_at_luthien or replace the 2 occuriences of awk with
gawk in 2 files: themes/{cde,luthien}/colors/main.

Heh, it is funny, I can't reproduce this. Maybe someone else can answer.
