Okay, it took me quite some hours to figure this out:  It's *not*
a problem with fvwm.  Although you can't see it, the application
window *is* mapped.  It's just that tk thinks it is not visible
and thus does not draw anything into it.  I couldn't find
anything that fvwm is doing wrong.  Actually, I couldn't even
find any difference in the requests that wish sends to fvwm -
regardless if the deiconify line is in the code or not.  I think
there must be a bug in wish.
