Can the constraint_class.set_values procedure of a constraint widget C
assume that C's constraint_class.initialize procedure has already executed?

If so, C's widget children cannot call XtSetValues() in their
core_class.initialize procedure, even to set ordinary, non-constraint
resource values.  But calling XtSetValues() may be the easiest way for a
widget class to override default values specified by its superclasses.  

If not, how can C's constraint_class.set_values procedure know whether
a child's constraint data has been initialized?
