Sorry, I can't answer your questions, but I have one word of advice.
The Release 2 version of Xt and Xaw are better than those in R1, but
they are still highly experimental, and broken in many ways.  You are
essentially beta-testing the code.  Personally, I'm waiting for another
release (or two) before attempting again to use them.   For now, you're
probably much better off writing your own, not-so-sophisticated toolkit
using the core Xlib directly.
