syster.fvwm2rc contains these lines:
# Read system and user menu prefixes
AddToMenu /Debian
+ "Main Menu" Title
Read /etc/X11/fvwm2/main-menu-pre.hook
Read .fvwm2/main-menu-pre.hook
# Read the auto-generated menus
Read /etc/X11/fvwm2/menudefs.hook
Read .fvwm2/menudefs.hook
It does that for all the hooks; reads in the system-wide hook, then the
user's hook. You need to delete menudefs.hook and main-menu-pre.hook
from ~/.fvwm2. The other hooks are empty (at least, they are on my system).

I just tried it and got that error too. I don't know what the problem is.
