It appears to be triggered by these entries:

"""
?package(wmaker):needs="wmaker" \
	section="/" title="Run..." \
	command="SHEXEC \"%A(Run,Type Command:)\""
?package(wmaker):needs="wmaker" \
	section="/" title="Exit" sort="ZZ" \
        command="EXIT"
?package(wmaker):needs="wmaker" \
	section="/" title="Exit session" sort="ZZ" \
        command="SHUTDOWN"
"""

With section "/", $rootsec and $sect in the following line appears to
become undef.

 my ($rootsec, $sect) = split m:/:, $section, 2;

Yummy...
