Subject: field in list widget structure


Some extremely wise person saw fit to change one of the fields in
XtListReturnStruct, the struct that is passed to a function when an
item is selected in a list widget.  They changed the field index to
list_index; enough to force modification of any program that uses it.

Can't there even be a #define for backwards compatibility?
