Summary: sidebar broken by X upgrade

Initial Comment:
An upgrade to current X11 (XQuartz) leaves xdvik with missing outlines on sidebar (see whitespace at right around page numbers/options in attached image).
This is xdvik version 22.84.16 (Xaw toolkit)
Libraries: kpathsea version 3.5.7, T1lib version 5.0.1
under Mac OS X 10.5.8; same problem occurs on both Intel laptop and PowerPC desktop.

Message:
No, I can't reproduce the problem on my installation (Linux, X.Org X Server
1.6.5 Release Date: 2009-10-11). I don't have OS X to reproduce ;-)

Message:
I've reverted to X11 version 2.3.1, which fixes the problem -- but
unfortunately leaves me in a position unable to try your tests!  (Are you
able to recreate the problem with xdvi?  One can also try it against xfig,
which is easy to get by macports.) I did some experiments with editres, but
couldn't locate a useful resource to modify.

Oh, and another test:
xdvi -xrm "*.borderWidth: 1" myfile.dvi

Message:
Could be a problem with X resources - what happens if you call xdvi like
this:
xdvi -xrm "*.button.borderColor: black" myfile.dvi
Do you maybe have a tool called 'editres' installed on your system? That
could help with debugging this.
