Well, no luck.  taskbar still segfaults:

[  165.614093] FvwmTaskBar[14701]: segfault at fffffff7 rip 2b7c4a6c52b5 rsp 7fff637048c0 error 4

[ebuild   R   ] x11-wm/fvwm-9999  USE="bidi doc gtk imlib nls perl png readline session stroke svg tk truetype xinerama xpm -debug -extras -rplay -shape -translucency" 0 kB [1]

I noticed that the fvwm overlay version is not very useful.  Mplayer,
for instance, which is also part of the devnull overlay, has a useful
version:

[ebuild   R   ] media-video/mplayer-2008.0103

fvwm --help is only slightly more useful:

fvwm 2.5.25 (from cvs) compiled on Feb 21 2008 at 20:06:03
with support for: ReadLine, Stroke, XPM, PNG, SVG, XShm, SM, Bidi text, Xinerama, XRender, XCursor, XFT, NLS

How does it track the version internally well enough to know when
updates are available?

And back to fvwm, should I report this to the gentoo maintainer (who
seems to be seriously out of date) or to the fvwm project -- does
gentoo add its own bells and whistles which would make a gentoo bug
report less useful?
