Since update wait's for all events of a certain type to be processed, this 
cannot be a timing problem. I have to repeat, this does work under other window 
managers, but I like fvwm the most. Using the described method is exactly the 
way it is proposed in many books/tutorials/wikits.
Another reason might also be the *PENDING* flags of windows introduced after 
2.2.5 (exept the MAP_PENDING), so that the X server sends events to wish in a 
different order. But I'm just guessing, I do not know the internals of fvwm 
well.
