My setup is SuSE 6.4 with some updates and mods. Is this the
same/similar as the platform with the problem ?

As a matter of interest did you try skipping this call in the debugger ( just to
see if this call was not the problem ) ?
Also you could try using a different call ( e.g. XmTextReplace, or

GDB hint :
to cast data in a print statement:
print {cast-to}uncast-type ( i.e. print *{XmTextWidget}monText )
