X extensions bug

Hello,

I've tried using the Extension/X11 with python 1.0.2 on a Decstation/Ultrix
with X11R4, Motif 1.1.

I get lots of the following type of warnings:

> xpython tdialog.py
X Toolkit Warning:
Name: aap
Class: XmLabel
Invalid XmNlabelString - must be a compound string

X Toolkit Warning:
Name: noot
Class: XmLabel
Invalid XmNlabelString - must be a compound string

X Toolkit Warning:
Name: mies met de lange naam
Class: XmLabel
Invalid XmNlabelString - must be a compound string

I traced this happening in XtSetValues() call.
I wonder if this is the documented bug in README:

Bugs:
- When using Motif 1.1 and X11 R4 on SGI, I found that Motif
compound strings (XmString) don't work. You can avoid them,
or use X11 R5, or ...?

If this is the same bug, can anybody fill in the ...? part?
Other than these warnings, everything seems pretty much to work,
including vpApp.

(Under Solaris 2.3, X11R5 and Motif 1.2 I did not get these bugs, but
unfortunately it has other more serious problems, especially with
vpApp).

Thanks,

Harri
