Oh my!

Well, I've figured out that the described bug occurs with the current
`master` at `4e759d6f`, and also with `fvwm2-stable` at `65007a8f`.

The bug does *not* occur with `version-2_4_20` at `86004a59`.

Unfortunately, I've failed to compile the lowest common ancestor
`version-2_4_4-pre1`, and also most of the FVWM versions between that
and `master`, probably because the build system has been changed and
maybe relies on older versions.

I've managed to compile `fd21cc0a`, which does show the bug.  That is
from 2011, somewhere between version 2.6.1 and 2.6.0 — i.e., if it's a
bug in FVWM, then it's an old one.

I'm still surprised though, that 2.4.20 does not exhibit the bug...
