Well,

When you reference an already installed libfvwm2.a file it isn't using the one you
just compiled, so if there were any changes to the fvwm library you are going
to be hosed.

My suggestion is not to install the fvwm2 library (you shouldn't need it, unless
you are doing some kind of programming), and if you do, you should be careful
of this bug in the future.

Chuck, I thought this was fixed in the makefile, to make it look for the locally
compiled library, instead of an installed on.
