I am seeing a problem with Motif 1.0 and was wondering if anyone else has seen this.  If it's a 1.0 bug, has it been fixed in 1.1?

Using XmListSelectPos seems to have indeterminate results, depending on whether or not the item was already set.  If the item is already selected, then it becomes deselected.  My work-around is to deselect all, then go through my loop which selects some items.  I am using selectionPolicy multiple select when I see the problem, but at other times I set the list widget to extended select.
