I'm seeing this problem, too, on a SPARCstation 1 running SunOS 4.0.3.
I have X11R4 (patches 1-9) and OpenWindows 1.0.1.  The R4 twm seems to
"lose" the icons (they just disappear).  The R3 (no patches) twm does
not seem to have this icon problem, although it has many other
problems :-( interacting with xnews.  The R3 twm linked with the R4
libraries also seems to be OK.  Thus it would seem to be something
that twm is doing...
