Well, I'm not entirely certain it is - this is one of the reasons I
really need to get off my but and package up something like Redhat's
configuration scheme.
Actually... (checking the fvwm95 man page)
Yes, it is possible.
What you need to do is say:
DestroyModuleConfig DebianFvwm95Buttons
This wipes out all the default buttons - you can add the ones you want
back in.
