It is a fvwm bug. I hope that we will be able to fix it soon. I switch to the fvwm-workers list. The problem is simple: all gnome panels have the same name, icon name, res name and class name! So when we restore the window state fvwm/session.c is unable to make the distinction between all the gnome panels. Any idea for a fix?
