Yes, I realise this (see other post), but  still don't think it could just get 
like that without there being a big problem.  I've run at least as much as he
listed, actually I've had three Navigator windows, several GIMP windows,
several (five or so) xterms, maybe some other stuff, under FVWM2 (which is no
lightweight itself) with no problem like that.
Maybe it's just my opinion, *shrug*
