This is correct. In prior releases, all of the round buttons of R4
applications were disabled due to performance considerations (it was
_slow_ on machines such as the VAX 2000). As of this release, I
realized that there was no longer any such reason to square the
buttons (and this is additional work to do), so with the R5
integration I did not make the changes to make the buttons square.

However, I erred with xmh (it's a special case and was possible to err
on) when integrating the resource file changes from last release, and
so it had square buttons. With the latest release of the packs
yesterday, I "fixed" this error.
