How does one get applications to properly register their icons to mwm?

I've tried setting the "XmNiconPixmap" property of the shell and first
  child in my application to a pixmap which I create with XmGetPixmap()
  or XCreatePixmapFromBitmapData(), but mwm keeps saying "Invalid icon bitmap"!

The funny thing is that both twm and tvtwm (of course) react properly.
  Do I also have to create a window for the icon or what?

Thanks for your help ...
