Fvwm is a very famous window manager for X, which provides a
virtual/multiple disjoint desktop, a 3-D look for windows decorations,
shaped/color icons. It gives a very good emulation of mwm. A nice
button-bar can be used to provide convenient access to frequently used
functions or programs.
This package also enables multibyte support to add internationalized
features; use multibyte characters in titlebar, icon name, etc.

Long long time ago, my friend Mr. yamamoto made an I18N_MB patch. It
was used mainly in Japan since it enable fvwm to display Japanese characters
in the menu, titlebar, and so on. However, and unfortunately, it was
not included original fvwm code at that time since less people need it.
Since then, I maintained the I18N_MB patch to adopt new fvwm releases.
IIRC, this patch is based on the hack for TWM (see X11R5 contrib), and
influences to other fvwm-derived window managers to be i18n-ed (e.g.,
afterstep, windowmaker, etc.)
Soon after the fvwm development team was re-organized as current form, I
tried pushing I18N_MB patch to be included to original fvwm code. It was
great pleasure for me but I have no time to test it; my desktop environment
is tainted with Windows, and I'm lazy to update my fvwm, that runs on VMware.

(1) Add new variable, XFREE86_VERSION, to specify which version of XFree86
(3 or 4) to depend to when USE_XLIB is set. XFREE86_VERSION defaults to 3
for now, but adventurous users can override it in /etc/make.conf. When
XFREE86_VERSION=3, USE_XLIB will add a dependency to x11/XFree86; when it
is set to 4, the dependency will be to x11/XFree86-4-libraries. When
XFREE86_VERSION=4, the PKG_IGNORE_DEPENDS and ALWAYS_BUILD_DEPENDS hacks
to avoid messing with XFree86 are turned off.
