Well, you might want to try one of our recent releases with:
BugOpts ModalityIsEvil
I just checked the MainWin knowledge base again and exporting
MWWM is still supposed to work.
Maybe someone did a local mod at your site and they are unsetting
that environment variable in a startup wrapper for the application?
Why don't you find out if RationalRose support or MainWin support
is as responsive as Fvwm support, and check with them?
