It wasn't really a bug report. I was just commenting on
the two development releases fvwm-2.5.2 and fvwm-2.5.3
since Dominik is rewriting this area it wouldn't make sense to
submit a bug report at this time.

I tried the above. Make install works fine but if you
make -k install-strip
then the problem occurs.

Thanks for the info. The above idea does what I want. i.e
startx >>/var/log/win_system_log 2>&1
gives me everything.
What I had in mind was the thread on the bash syntax. If
a log was running I would have immediately seen
/bin/sh: -c: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `;'
and now that I have have the log running I notice that I have
a million errors in my fvwm2rc script.
