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.
