I have two problems that I have not been able to solve (all running X11R2):


1) I have a Dialog Widget with a command button for getting a file name
   from the user.  The server is a uVax QVSS and the Client is a Multiflow
   Trace.  The Client is running BSD4.3 and the Server is running Ultrix 1.1
   
   There are other command buttons and scrollbars used by the program.
   Everything is fine until I try to type the filename into the dialogWidget
   input area.  The program then hangs in XtWaitForReadable.
   
   The same client compiled on a Vax 11/780 running BSD4.2 works ok.
   
   The Dialog Widget is in a boxWidget that is in a toplevelShell.
   
   The toplevelShell is created AFTER starting XtMainLoop (its activated
   from a callback to a commandButton).

2) When Thumbing (pressing middle button) a scrollbar widget,
   a core dump occurs.  If I just click the middle button, the thumb
   does what it is supposed to do.  If I hold down the middle button
   to slide the thumb, then I get a core-dump.  There are callback
   procedures set up for both the Scrolled and Thumbed events.
   The Server is a uVax QVSS running Ultrix 1.1 and the Client is
   a Vax 11/780 running BSD4.2
