Dump the debian fvwm package, download the latest stable fvwm tarball (fvwm-2.4.12) and build and install it locally without the --enable-multibyte option when running configure. Although multi byte font support is marked as experimental in 2.4.x, several distributions ship with multibyte enabled versions.
