See attached patch. The Makefile.am need some tuning because some
names are hard coded in install...local rules (FvwmCommand.sh,
FvwmCommand.pm, xpmroot*, fvwm2*, message catalogs). It's easy to
firgure out; just configure with --prefix=some-private-dir, ass
program-suffix and program-prefix, then install and see which
files end up in the wrong place.
