Regarding your comment:

I'm probably confused but the following code works just as you expect
under X11/NeWS (my input is marked with '>'):

	plutionium- psh
	>executive
	Welcome to X11/NeWS Version 1.0
	>framebuffer newcanvas
	>gsave
	>framebuffer setcanvas
	>50 50 translate
	>0 0 100 100 rectpath
	>dup reshapecanvas
	>stack
	canvas(0x491ad0,100x100,unmapped)
	>grestore
	>setcanvas
	>currentcanvas /Mapped true put
	>black setcolor
	>0 0 100 100 rectpath fill
	>white setcolor
	>20 20 translate
	>0 0 30 30 rectpath fill
	>currentcanvas /Mapped false put
	>grestore
	>quit
	psh: NeWS server disconnected
	plutonium- 

Am I missing something?
