I have never tested FvwmCommand on glibc myself. But, I exchanged emails
with Martin Bialasinski to make it work on his system, which is a glibc
machine. Version 1.5 includes that fix. (His problem was not "dead pipe"
by the way, but related with xdm.)

Checking back those emails, I did not get a confirmation from him if
he took the tar file from my web page and run as it is.

Can anybody else confirm if it works on glib systems ?
