I'm running unpatched ATK 5.1 compiled with the bundled compiler on a Sun IPX
running 4.1.3.  The cmenu help file sez:

PopupForegroundColor: black	(MenuForeground)
Determines the color to use for the foreground when drawing the menus.
The default value for the foreground color is black.  This attribute
is only consulted if the menus are being drawn on a color monitor.

Well, the menus seem to have decided that I don't have color hardware since
PopupOverlapPct: 80 and
PopupItemFont: -adobe-times-medium-i-normal--12-0-75-75-p-0-iso8859-1

both work in preferences (a link .Xdefaults), but PopupForegroundColor: red
doesn't. The following two do work, though:

help.ForeGroundColor: cyan
help.BackGroundColor: gray18


What am I missing?
