Bug Description

Mint 11 Kataya 64, gnome
Mint 12 Lisa 32, gnome
Mint 12 Lisa 64, gnome

fvwm 2.6.4 compiled from scratch 'configure && make && make instal' .

Everytime tested both before any upgrades and after performing 'apt-get dist update && apt-get dist upgraade'
Tested on two different computers and in virtualbox.

-----

Everytime executing command 'infostoreadd somekey somevalue'
The session gets killed.

InfoStore should add the key to it's database, and then fvwm session should NOT die.
InfoStore is a new command in Fvwm Window manager.

The problem happends everytime InfostoreAdd somekey somevalue is executed.

It's confirmed to work in the most (so far - all) distros except Linux mint.

Also - when building fvwm so it makes core - files 'make CFLAGS="-g" ', fvwm does not crash when executing that command in config or fvwmconsole, which gives no core file for debugging.

Here is my thread about this on fvwmforums http://www.fvwmforums.org/phpBB3/search.php?search_id=egosearch
Here is the fvwm manpage, InfoStore is named on that page http://www.fvwm.org/documentation/manpages/stable/fvwm.php

I misspelled 'make install' in the bug.report, but not on the commandline.
