The problem I had on our alphas with fvwm-2.039 - moving windows is now
resolved
thanks to Douglas Ghormley <ghorm_at_cayuse.CS.Berkeley.EDU> who put me on the
right track. My problem was not with the X11 libraries but with the header
files - I had some old ones in /usr/local/include which was in my include path
in front of /usr/include because that's where I had xpm.h. Everything now
works
fine! (thought I was going crazy there for a while...)
Thanks to everyone who had suggestions....

Original problem was:
>> We have been working with fvwm 1.24r until now. Today I got hold
>> of fvwm2.039. It built without problems, but I have a bizarre
>> behaviour when trying to move a window - instead of following the
>> mouse the window will jump down the screen and will only move left
>> or right (even when moving the mouse up/down left/right).
>> Releasing the mouse button - the window will jump again...the usual
>> result is that the window goes offscreen somewhere. This happens
>> with move from the window-ops menu or just by clicking on the title
>> bar. Second - maybe related - problem is the pager. Here clicking
>> on the desired desktop does not work - focus jumps to another....
>>
>> I have tried with both the sample.fvwmrc that came with the
>> distribution and my own converted .fvwmrc - the results are the
>> same.
>>
>> The system is DEC alpha OSF1/3.2a , compiler was "cc -migrate" but
>> I have tried also with "cc" both with and without the optimiser -
>> same results.
