I had a similar problem, setting up a bitmap label from a "bitmap" (the program)
created bitmap data file.   I did something like this...

	Display *display;
	int screen;
	Widget label;
	Pixmap bitmap;
	Arg arg[1];
	int n;

	display = XtDisplay (partent_widget);
	screen = DefaultScreen (display);
	bitmap = XCreateBitmapFromData (display, RootWindow(display,screen),
			thebitmap_bits, thebitmap_width, thebitmap_height);
	n = 0;
	XtSetArg (arg[n], XtNbitmap, bitmap);	n++;
	label = XtCreateManagedWidget ("icon",
			labelWidgetClass, parent_widget,
			arg, n);
	
Did the trick for me, as far as that pesky error message was concerned...
