What is the age of your fvwm2 installation?
The man page for FvwmTaskBar that ships with Slackware 13.37 says this
under BUGS:
There is a bug report that FvwmTaskBar doesn't work well with
auto hide turned on.
And there is exactly zero mention of fvwm95. And test starting
FvwmTaskBar, I get a win95 style task bar along the bottom of my
screen.
For yours to mention fvwm95 implies it is older than the version
shipped with Slackware 13.37. Which is fvwm2.4.20.
