The if-syntax patch I wrote some time ago robustly solves these issues
(& more).

It may require trivial changes to apply cleanly against current versions
of FVWM.

At the time I wrote it, it was agreed this feature should be added in
the 2.6 release ... that was 2 years, 9 weeks, 6 days, 21 hours and 7
minutes ago.

Given that 2.6 still isn't released, are there any objections to
committing it now, in 2.5?


No objections from my part :)

Cheers,

H. There is a race condition in the FvwmForm module. A button
press can trigger a call to RedrawItem() at the same time
RedrawTimeout() is being invoked (every second) by a signal handler.
(implemented using the alarm() system call.)
