Because FvwmIconMan (as the TaskBar and WinList) use the pixmap ids
(picture, mask, alpha, width, height and depth members of the
M_MINI_ICON packet) and not the name. For Fixing FvwmWindowMenu we
should add a new fvwm menu syntax to be able to pass an ewmh_mini_icon
(e.g., %ewmi(window_id)%), but I do not think that it is the time to
do that.
To avoid the error we may always send the name from the MiniIcon style
as I do not think that ewmh_mini_icon is used. However, sometimes
error is better: in this case the error "says" that you should use
"Style * EWMHMiniIconOverride" to get the same mini-icon everywhere.
