Regarding resource cache counting:

Say I have a widget of class fooClass with an XtNforeground resource.

Suppose I want to change the foreground color (let's say I want to
blink the widget) so I get an alternate color via:

    XtConvertAndStore(w, XtRString, &src, XtRPixel, &dest);

Xt adds a XtNdestroyCallback to the widget to decrement the
resource's reference count and free the cached resource if zero.
Right?

To use the same color for a second widget, I must then call
XtConvertAndStore again if I want to properly maintain the
resource cache count.  Correct?

Because, if I don't, and I destroy the first widget (the one
used in the XtConvertAndStore) my reference count could
possible reach zero even though the second widget still
may use that secondary pixel value.
