This is a timing problem in FvwmPager. I posted a patch some time ago,
but either it didn't make it to the list or it has not been applied.
It will happen when you drag a window - in the pager, of course -
from another desk to the current page of the current desk.
Dragging the window *out* of the pager doesn't cause the problem.
