I don't have a complete answer to the question.  But I tried to do the
same thing and failed.  I use the following in my .fvwmrc as the next
best thing.  It beats trying to edit the code of fvwm.

<code from .fvwmrc>
# Button 1 in title should raise, 3 should lower, 2 should move.
Mouse 1		ST	A	Function "Move-or-Raise"
Mouse 1		STW	M	Raise
Mouse 2		STI	A	Move
Mouse 2		STW	M	Move
Mouse 3		STI	A	Lower
Mouse 3		STW	M	Lower
<end of code from .fvwmrc>

This allows me to click once on a window to select it, and give it
focus.  I then use Alt-button-3 to push the window to the bottom.
This usually gives me the desired effect with two button clicks and
key press.  This works because Raise and Lower to not change which
window has focus.

I hope this is helpful to someone.
