Correct - FvwmConfig doesn't have Imake support since it's written in
C++. Perhaps I should put a note that it doesn't get built by default
in the README or INSTALL file. There, I just did so for the next
release (INSTALL & BUGS).

Put the in your MANPATH, or use a simple little utility, like this
(from my .cshrc):
alias lman 'tbl \!* | neqn | nroff -man | more'
