Xt Intrinsics "application context" contains a field app->rv (reverse video),
initialized at the application startup.

To get to this field in Motif's R3 Intrinsics, I am forced to include
the whole suite of ...I.h header files.

Is there any better way to find out, in particular in R4 or R5(?), what
this value is ?
I need this value inside the StringToPixel convertor, as I have to reload
the default one to be able to keep track of color cell allocation counts
[Bob Scheifler explained that the server should keep reference counts,
 but none of the servers I'v got around does, so I have to do it myself
 to prevent application from freeing a color allocated by the converter]
