Motif 2.0 / Metro-X drag-drop on multi-line widget core dumps

I've got an interesting drag-drop problem with Motif 2.0 and the Metro-X   
server.

If I use the middle mouse button to drag from a multi-line text widget   
(or sub-class like XmButton) I get a core dump.

This can be easily demonstrated (rather ironically) by running the Motif   
'periodic' demo and pressing the middle mouse button on the text "Don't   
Panic"!

System set up as follows :-

$ rpm -qa | grep motif
rh-motif-2.0-1
rh-motif-mwm-2.0-1
rh-motif-demosbin-2.0-1
rh-motif-devel-2.0-1
rh-motif-man-2.0-1

$ rpm -qa | grep metro
metroess-3.1.2-1

$ rpm -qa | grep XFree
XFree86-devel-3.1.2-4
XFree86-fonts-3.1.2-4
XFree86-3.1.2-5

If anyone with RH Motif 2.0 doesn't have the same problem, I'd appreciate   
what the three above rpm commands give you on your system.

Thanks for any info,

Matt Burt (UK)
