SetUp: Sun 3/80, SunOS 4.0.3, X11R4 (compiled with cc)

I am attempting to  convert a fairly simple   SunView program for  use
under X11R4, using XView.  I retrieved the latest patches I could find
from  expo and  applied them   and compiled  the XView  libraries  and
installed the headers as  instructed.   I  then (FOUR HOURS LATER) ran
the convert_to_xview script and edited the resulting file which I then
compiled with the command:

cc -o ljack ljack.c -lxview -lX11 -I/usr/global/include/X11

The program compiles without  error, and even runs correctly...almost.
The problem occurs  when  the window is   iconified and  the   program
attempts to change the icon  (This  program monitors several log files
and changes the icon when an entry  is made  in one  of the logs); the
icon does not change and cannot be  de-iconified by simply clicking on
the icon,  I must choose the (de)-iconify   entry in   my TWM menu and
click on the  icon.  The  window will then  pop up,   which the latest
entry appearing in the monitored log file,  but  the icon also remains
on the  screen.  When I re-iconify the  window,  it  goes back  to the
previously frozen icon,   but  I can now  open   the  window again  by
clicking on the icon (until of course, the  program tries to change it
again).  I have found  this behavior in other programs  (i.e. contool)
that I have tried to convert to XView, that try to change the icon.

I think I  can rule  out window manager problems, as  this occurs with
uwm and gwm, as well as twm.

If anyone can shed some light upon my problem, I would greatly
appreciate it.

Thanks in Advance,
Emmett
