I do encounter X errors when restarting fvwm with the FvwmButton Module.

Here's an example:
FvwmButtons: Cause of next X Error.
X Error of failed request: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
  Major opcode of failed request: 12 (X_ConfigureWindow)
  Resource id in failed request: 0x2800003
  Serial number of failed request: 460
  Current serial number in output stream: 479

Don't know the cause of it though...
