You know that you can restart icewm by sending it the HUP signal? Just 
say 'kill -HUP pid', where pid is icewm's PID, or use this little bash 
script:

#-----------------------------------------------
#!/bin/bash

pid=$$

while true
do
     stat=($(</proc/$pid/stat))
     (( pid == 1 )) && exit 1
     [[ ${stat[1]} == '(icewm)' ]] && break
     pid=${stat[3]}
done

kill -HUP $pid
