And you've confirmed that's the version of FVWM you're actually starting?
i.e., it's found in your $PATH?
yes(checked with fvwm -V), and anyway, I first purged the Debian package
I would do the following:
1. Comment out the "Style xclock NoTitle" line from your config and restart
FVWM, ensuring you close any other instance of xclock first.
2. Open FvwmConsole [1]
3. Run xclock
4. In to FvwmConsole, type this:
Style xclock !Title
... and tell me what happens.

[1] I didn't see this in your config, so you'll have to add it to your
StartFunction or bind it to a menu or a key binding, since this must be
spawned by FVWM.
it's one of the 4 fvwm buttons
That worked, and with "read debug" also, but the behaviour is much more
complicated (a good way to drive somebody crazy!)
1/ with FvwmConsole, all parameters work(Title, Sticky,..)...but
StaysOnTOP
2/ with "Fvwm restart", only Title/Notitle works, i.e. is taken
into account without restarting xclock.
To check that it's not an xclock related problem, I tried also with
xdvi: same behaviuor.
And I tried also on my new laptop, on which I have a freshly installed
Squeeze: same thing.

Anyway, as it works by restarting the application, it's a minor bug,
and it doesn't deserve spending too much time on it.
Thanks for your help.
