I gave up trying to use g++ and tried sun C++ instead.
I built interviews on a SPARC with X11R5.
I still notice some strange behavior.  

The font menus for ibuild, idraw and schem
display the names of fonts with black text on a black background.
They do change the font indicated in the status line though.

In ibuild, after creating most object types and displaying a menu,
the text on the object (Message, Button etc) and the background colors
become the same.  That is, the text is no longer readable.

In schem, if I fork a window with "Create Alias" and then do
try to finish it with "Definition" I get a core dump.

When I use doc to examine the documents in doc-examples/intro.doc
from the directory doc-examples, The figures do not appear in the
document, only boxes with the names of the figures.

Help?
