I did this using gcc 2.3.1 and libg++ 2.2 on an rs6000 under AIX
3.2.1 and saw the same behaviour.  I dug around with the debugger and
it turned out that gcc was generating bogus vtables for TextViews.  It
seems that gcc did not like having two copies of Resource in the
TextView (which were there because in 3.1 Resource is not a virtual
baseclass of Glyph and Handler).  I edited the InterViews headers to
make Resource a virtual baseclass of all of its derived classes,
recompiled the lot and doc started working.

Doc still freezes on me when I try to drag a float around but I
haven't looked for this one yet.
