I don't mind telling people it's broken. 2.1.7 is a beta.
That explains everything. Betas may be buggy and are not
meant to be used in production. I don't see a reason why
we should make new releases fast becaus of bugs as long
as they don't really break up fvwm completely.
Having a release cycle that is too short might discourage
people to use all these betas. I think 2.1.8 should not
come before next week.
