There was a minor bug in fvwm-0.97-src.tar.z from sunsite.unc.edu,
which should probably be corrected. The release has been updated and
saved as fvwm-0.97b-src.tar.z. Here is a patch for anyone who already
downloaded the code:

For some reason SunOS4.1.3, and maybe all BSD systems tolerate the
error quite nicely, but SYSV type systems seem to have problems.
Another handy patch for SYSV type users (HP-UX) is to change
fd_width = getdtablesize();
in events.c to
fd_width = sysconf(_SC_OPEN_MAX);
But this is not required.
