This is a function emulating IRIS GL function qreset() which just ate
all events in the queue without processing them.

I can't think of an equivalent in XForms but you could use the raw
Xlib function XSync():

XSync( fl_get_display(), True );

however, as the manual page for the function says, "[v]ery few clients
need to use this function." Since X and, hence, XForms handle events
in a somewhat different way than IRIS GL, you may find that you can
simply avoid using this function entirely with no deleterious effects.
