The only difference is in the rendering of tables. Forms without tables render
fine.

Same binary (I copied it over), but was also happening with a freshly-compiled
binary on the troublesome machine. Same rom image, mem size, and emulated
machine.

Indeed, which is why I was loathe to copy any libraries around. Trouble is I
wouldn't know where to start to find out why the values get set incorrectly --
the reason I thought libX might be to blame is because I imagine pose gets
sent some sort of window drawing events, but I know nothing about X
programming so I'm probably wrong here.
Any ideas how to go about tracking this down? I'm completely stumped..
Thanks,
