This seems to be a problem specific to fvwm-95.
In TMotifCanvas, we correctly invoke the X11 XtVaSetValues procedure:
//______________________________________________________________________________
TMotifCanvas::TMotifCanvas(TCanvas *c, const char *name, Int_t x, Int_t y, UInt_t width,
UInt_t height)
: TCanvasImp(c), TMenuWindow(name)
{

CreateWindow();

XtVaSetValues(XtParent(MainWindowWidget()),
XmNx, x,
XmNy, y,
XmNwidth, width,
XmNheight, height,
NULL);
}

fvwm-95 experts, please help.
