That's a nice tip. Unfortunately, the output from a well behaving window
is identical to the offending window:

Nice window:
[FVWM][__explain_placement]: placed new window 0xe00022 'ssh':
  desk 0 (current desk)
  current page
  screen: current screen: 0 0 1280x1024 (current screen)
  position 566 364, placed by fvwm (normal placement)
    placement method: MinOverlapPercent

Offending window:
[FVWM][__explain_placement]: placed new window 0x1a04757 'gmpc - id3 info':
  desk 0 (current desk)
  current page
  screen: current screen: 0 0 1280x1024 (current screen)
  position 291 688, placed by fvwm (normal placement)
    placement method: MinOverlapPercent

I also see this output from a few windows (these are behaving correctly):
[FVWM][__explain_placement]: placed new window 0x2400584 'Gajim':
  desk 0 (specified by style)
  current page
  screen: current screen: 1280 0 1280x1024 (current screen)
  position 1280 430, placed by fvwm (ignored program specified position)
    placement method: MinOverlapPercent

I obviously can't ;)
