This is something that xterm does:
1) Select something in xterm 1. xterm1 is on top of the
window stack, and xterm 2 partially below it. Nothing is
selected in xterm 2.
2) Click in xterm 2 to raise it. The click is passed to the
window. It currently has no selection, and since you did not
move the mouse, xterm does not clear the selection that was
set by a different program (you would *hate* it if it did so).
3) Click in xterm 1 again to raise it. xterm deletes its current
selection since you clicked into it. Fvwm is not even
involved.
If you had not only clicked but also moved the mouse in step 2,
xterm 2 would have made a selection and the selection in xterm 1
would have been deleted (try it). I guess that's exactly how it
should work here. If it worked like you described as desirable,
the selection in an xterm would be deleted needlessly under the
described circumstances.
