Reporting back that:

OnTitlebar Mouse1 :StartMoving

Actually fixed the issue.  So it was a matter of changing the
configuration file as mentioned.  Perhaps this can be closed then as a
user configuration issue.

As mentioned fixing /etc/X11/fluxbox/keys doesn't fix ~/.fluxbox/keys,
but a key learning for users might be to always compare configuration
files against global ones when upgrades happen.

Thanks for quick response...

Javier.
