Of course, this "bug" is caused by the use of  and EWMH activate
window request before the EWMH move is initiated. And because of the
implementation in fvwm to call a complex function, fvwm will try to
grab the pointer, which won't work since the client still holds a
grab, and thus there will be a timeout (the reported delay) before
fvwm gives up on trying to activate the window. There is a workaround:
to destroy the EWMHActivateWindowFunc.
