The problem you describe is a combination of problems. The color server
on the DECstations is flaky in that it can't deal with large cursors,
and mwm was compiled with large cursors on the DECstation. Had I known
this, I would've compiled it with small cursors on the DECstation.
Since I could only test it on a monochrome DECstation, I didn't know
about this problem until it was too late.
For the next release, I will be compiling mwm with small cursors
(perhaps I'll just use small cursors for every machine, so they all look
the same), so this problem should go away with the next release.
