I use fvwm all the time, I've never had the X server die on me.
Maybe you have something in your .fvwmrc file that
refers to some specific font for titles or menus or something that
the X server finds offensive? (Not that it should crash).

I seem to recall some bug floating around out there about font problems
with certain bitmap fonts and certain video drivers.
