I've made some changes too, but I have not had the same results.

My Doc comes up with no menus at all. Well, there are menus, but there is
no text in them. I don't know why.

At first, I had problems with getting idraw to start without a segv.
I found a file in the Unidraw library called kybd.c that contained strings 
that seemed to be uninitialized. So I moved the initialization to another 
place, the initialization of the unidraw library.

Now, I can get keybord events through, but no mouse events get through if 
unidraw is used.
