Scrolling problem in XChess

#6009

I've just gotten and compiled GNU Chess 3.1 on my RISC System/6000 - the
compilation went smoothly for both GNU Chess itself (3 versions) and XChess.
However, when I run XChess, it mangles the message and game history window
whenever it attempts to scroll them - no matter whether I am using smooth
or jump scrolling.  I do have the fonts XChess is looking for.

Does anyone know if this is a known problem with XChess or could it be
something with the environment in which I am working?

Thanks for any help.
