Did you attempt to run it in DSL before building your remaster? Fluxbox devel has additional requirements over the stable version, and some of these requirements are not available in DSL. Configuring with the following options should make it usable in DSL:
--disable-xft --disable-randr --disable-gnome --disable-kde
Either do that, or do this in DSL:
ldd /path/to/fluxbox | grep "not found"
This will give you a list of needed libs that are not in DSL

I've got 0.9.13 working in DSL now, and will be submitting a myDSL package very soon.
