Yes.
The correct (obsolete) syntax of button lines is:
*FvwmButtons <button title> <icon file> <action>
In your config lines:
> *FvwmButtons Primrose Exec /usr/local/X11/bin/xrsh primrose &
^^^^^^^^ ^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
title icon action
> *FvwmButtons Mimosa Exec "Mimosa" /usr/local/X11/bin/xrsh mimosa &
^^^^^^ ^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
title icon action
The correct lines are:
*FvwmButtons Primrose - Exec /usr/local/X11/bin/xrsh primrose &
*FvwmButtons Mimosa - Exec "Mimosa" /usr/local/X11/bin/xrsh mimosa &
