System name:		m66-080-9
Type and version:	SPARC/5 7.7T
Display type:		cgthree

What were you trying to do?
	Execute a command from the FVWM pop-up menus using the FVWM Exec
	command.

	i.e. I'm trying to start emacs.

What's wrong:
	When I use the pop-up menus to execute a command, the window manager
	quits.

	i.e. I click to start emacs, and suddenly FVWM quits - there are no
	window borders, and on some systems, I cannot even type in any windows.
	When I do restart the window manager, the program is running, so at
	least that part works.

What should have happened:
	Normally, the command executes and the window manager keeps running.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
