So it is another little issue related to the shared Xt and Xaw
libraries. I did a search in the twm sources for "Vendor", "Shell",
"VendorShell", etc. but didn't find anything. I am sure that you can
probably find info on how the OS/2 guys handled this bug, but searching
for "OS2" turned up nothing in the twm sources either.
I am at a loss. As I said, this is yours to debug further. If twm is
the only app that is broken by the shared libs, then I am still not
particularly concerned. If it turns out that every other app is broken,
or a significant number of other apps are broken, then I will certainly
become concerned.
