	Are you trying to set this when you create the widget?
	First, I don't think you need to set it to NULL to use shadowColor
	if you weren't previously using a pixmap,
	atleast I didn't need to set it.
	Also, there's this XmUNSPECIFIED_PIXMAP value for that resource,
	maybe that is what is suppose to be used instead of NULL,
	not sure though.
	Second, (not sure this is related) I get a similar error about
	window id when I try to set XmNmappedWhenManaged or 
	use XtSetMappedWhenManaged, if I try to do it before the first
	time a manage the widget, but it works fine if I do it after
	I've managed the widget once.
	Is this the way this is suppose to work,
	it doesn't sound like it from the docs.
