Hmm. I guess the man page is still out of date then, as it has the
following still listed

       The command
              Any fvwm command is recognized by FvwmButtons. See
              fvwm(1) for more info on this. The Exec command has
              a small extension when used in Actions, its syntax
              is here:

                Exec ["hangon"] command

              When FvwmButtons finds such an Exec command, the
              button will remain pushed in until a window whose
              name or class matches the qouted portion of the
              command is encountered.

Actually it looks like it's been moved back to a global. I had mwm in
Menustyle and now I had to add an

Emulate mwm

As a global variable again.
