For what its worth, mwm (the 3D look) tends to use more colors than uwm
would need.   Also, I believe uwm doesn't install colormaps on behalf of
the client, whereas mwm does.    Maybe under uwm you're always querying
the same non-complaining colormap, and under mwm you're having problems
with the changing colormaps.
