Thanks for your report!

You've encountered the new application relaunching behavior which first 
appeared in Window Maker 0.95.3.  From the NEWS file:



There are now several ways to launch a new instance of an application with the
same command line that was originally used to start it.

1. By selecting Launch from the application's window menu.
2. By using the "Launch new instance of application" keyboard shortcut.
3. By clicking the application's appicon with the middle button.
4. By double-clicking the application's appicon while holding Control.


You definitely found a bug in the upstream FAQ, as it is clearly 
out-of-date.  I'm retitling this bug accordingly and forwarding upstream.

After updating the wmaker package from 0.95.2-1, I can no longer start
multiple xterms from the same appicon on the dock. I'm using the
