Problem: xwais in freeWAIS-0.3 is not reading its app-defaults

I have gotten freeWAIS-0.3 up and running on a SPARC under SunOS
4.1.3_U1.  I have successfully used Sun's ANSI compiler (acc).

The only problems left are with xwais and xwaisq!  They do not read
their resources file at all.  They pop up a window stating:

	X resources not properly installed.

Setting Xwais.defaultsInstalled to True does get xwais to continue but
the buttons are all messed up.  Both XFILESEARCHPATH and
XUSERFILESEARCHPATH are set:

/home/andie2/ralph/lib/app-defaults:/usr/openwin/lib/app-defaults/%T/%N%S:/usr/local/lib/X11/app-defaults/%T/%N%S


So what is going wrong?  (I did not have this problem the last time I
installed xwais (old version xwais-b4).

Thanks in advance,
