Recently I tried to upgrade fvwm from 2.2.5 to 2.4.8. Some bug must have been 
introduced into function DeIconify (called in events.c line 1177). I have a 
iconified window, and when I try to deiconify it, only the window 
frame+decoration  get's repainted. The X-Events the window manager produces, 
vary a *lot* from version 2.2.5 to 2.4.8.
2.2.5 produces: CreateNotify, MapNotify,CreateNotify,ConfigureNotify amd 
MapNotify
2.4.8 produces: ReparentNotify, ConfigureNotify,MapNotify, 
VisibilityNotify,Expose and UnmapNotify.

This is with tcl/tk (8.3.4). The tk-window content get's not painted, if I use 
the command "update idletasks".
This does not happen with other window managers.
I compared event.c with version 2.2.5 and the code or at least the comments 
seem to be mixed up.
I tried to changed in line 1174 the IS_ICONIFIED to !IS_ICONIFIED, the 
problem's gone (that's the reason why I believe the error is in function 
DeIconify) , but this will definitely have sideeffects. Also the comment above 
this line seems to belong elsewhere.
Can someone of the "core developers" give a comment on this ?

Thanks
Gerhard
