A bit more on the existence of this problem on
other platforms. Two independent people confirmed
that the bug occurs in fvwm on PC too.

I would make a wild guess that this bug is in
either X11 code or the code common to both fvwm
and AfterStep. 

In this respect: what is the code common to
fvwm2 and Afterstep?

my PC and never on my Sun. Sorry, it does not 
have to do anything with the NumLock.
