The usage of font attributes in xv_create() is correct in the posted
example.  However, the usage of PANEL_LABEL_FONT on the PANEL_BUTTON has
some problems:

PANEL_LABEL_FONT is a 'compatability' attribute i.e. it exists for SunView
compatability reasons, but is not really supported. The attribute that
should be used is XV_FONT.

Also, you can set the font for a PANEL which will make all the Panel items
use it, but you cannot set fonts for individual Panel items.  This is
because according to OPEN LOOK, all Panel items must have the same font.
Panel items simply ignore font attributes.

The solution is to use the attribute XV_FONT on the PANEL and not on the
PANEL_BUTTON. The entire corrected program is included below.
