Thanks for the patch, but fvwm will be moving to meson as the build
system with the next release, 1.1.1, and will be dropping autotools 6
months after that. I already have the Debian package updated to build
using meson as well, so my next upload with the 1.1.1 release coming
up will build using meson.

I am unsure what work would need to be done with meson to get it so
fvwm3 can be cross buildable, but any work towards making fvwm3 cross
buildable will have to work with meson going forward. I have a branch
with the meson build setup on the VCS if you want to test it out
before the 1.1.1 release and I upload the package candidate to
mentors.
