fix the shutdown/reboot problem in icewm-1.3.8

icewm version 1.3.8 introduced a bug that Shutdown/Reboot IceWM menu entries are unresponsive. ( http://sourceforge.net/p/icewm/bugs/911/ )

Version 1.3.8 is now marked as stable in Gentoo. Unfortunately the upstream hasn't been fixing bugs for a year now. There exists a simple fix to the problem. I'll attach the needed files.

Alternative solution is moving to a fork of icewm that includes most of the fixes included by other distributions and icewm buglistings. That solution is listed as upgrade request with gentoo bug #525212.

icewm-1.3.x is long gone. Please file a new bug against recent icewm versions
if this is still an issue.
