Well, it's nice to know I'm not on drugs, and that whatever it is it
isn't remotely XFree86-version or kernel-version dependent. :)

Doesn't look like it. Test it; stick something in your X startup files
so you get an xterm before the wm starts and when you exit it, the wm
starts up; you'll find you can switch VCs with that xterm running with
impunity. But when fvwm starts, switching VCs is the kiss of death :(
