Speaking of the alpha snapshot, anyone been able to get it to function

This sounds like a LessTif rather than a geomview problem; Lesstif
has ongoing problems with 64-bit architectures. What version of
LessTif are you using?
http://www.lesstif.org/ReleaseNotes.html
says
Release 0.93.95 (August 6, 2004 danny)
[..]
A fix to the CascadeButton widget and gadget code for 64-bit systems.
Lesson learned : using the wrong type can create havoc even on dummy
variables.
the bugzilla page says:
Warning:
Name: button_1
Class: XmCascadeButtonGadget
Illegal mnemonic character; Could not convert X KEYSYM to a keycode
The similar debian bug at
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=314988
reports the crash using the earlier
ii lesstif1 1:0.93.94-11.4 OSF/Motif 1.2 implementation relea
So, I'm convinced that it's lesstif, and not a Geomview problem.
I don't have a 64-bit system. If someone can check with versions of
LessTif and update the redhat and debian bug tracking to reflect the
results (and redo the rpms?), I think we're done here.
