As has been pointed out tkgoodstuff will do this for you now.

You can specify in the xload that no title be used, then create a small
button above the xload with the name of the machine which can be used to
click on to Exec what you wanted...
For example:
Module FvwmButtons /tmp/configfile
/tmp/configfile:
(9x1, Container(Padding 0 0,Frame 0,Fore black,Back white,Rows 6,Columns 9))
(1x1,Title m1)
(1x1,Title m2)
(1x1,Title m3)
....
(1x5,Swallow (NoTitle) xload)
....
(End)
Except that didn't work when I tried it...argh...but you do get the idea
I hope...
