Summary: "Scroll up" screws display
Initial Comment:
When scrolling up one line the display shows the newly appearing line plus the
second line repeating for the rest of the window. E.g. a "page up" results in a
proper display of the file content again, while "page down" only shows the new
content on the bottom properly, while the upper half is still the one line
repeated.

Message:
In makefiles/Makefile.linux, if you follow the instructions for
-DHAVE__XMVERSIONSTRING it would report your Motif runtime version instead
of "[unknown]". If it's a static build they will always be the same. If
it's a dynamic build they might not be.
e.g.:
ldd `which nedit`
libXm.so.2 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXm.so.2 (0x4002d000)
--snip--
nedit -version
With Motif: 2.1.30 [@(#)Motif Version 2.1.30]
--snip--
Running a 2.1.30 dynamic build on a system with 2.2.3 amd 2.3.0 runtime
might not be a good idea.

Message:
The workaround does not work.
I've typed: bash -c "export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1;nedit"
and still have the same problem.
I found a solution: using Nedit 5.5 compiled against motif 2.3 fixes the
problem.
It appears to be an incompatability of openmotif 2.3.0 with motif 2.1.
The version that works fine for me is:

See bugs #1773770, #1710741 and #1458006.
If you set XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS to 1, the problem will probably go
away.
Eg: XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 nedit
We have a workaround in CVS.

have the same effect.
