Why does this cause a problem - surely update-menus only needs read permission on the files - any other permissions are just "extra". I aggree the permissions shouldn't be there, and that a bug report should be filed against fvwm95, but I've been bitten by the same "feature" :-( NB: This "feature" was still present in menu 1.5-2.
