Has anyone ever seen this?

Its fvwm 1.24r running openwindows on an UltraSparc 140E on Solaris
2.5.1. Also compiling fvwm-2.0.45 seems to work but then it eats itself
when executed. It tries to executes every line of the .fvwm2rc file as
a module.

I tried removing all system.fvwmrc files, etc, and I still got BadAtom
when trying to run my application (Cabletron Spectrum Network Management
system). Let me know if anyone has run into any of these problems and
have overcome them. I'd hate to have to stop using fvwm.

        Thanks
