Hi James,
You're right- I goofed. Sorry for wasting your time.
I had a file name collision between the original patch and my hacked version. 
Attached is the correct (and renamed) file.

Two other notes-You will also have to install 
xserver-xorg-core_1.7.6-2ubuntu8_i386.deb which will be in the same directory 
as xserver-common_1.7.6-2ubuntu8_all.deb:
  $ sudo dpkg -i xserver-xorg-core_1.7.6-2ubuntu8_i386.deb

and you will need to reboot (restarting the X server will probably
work).

There are other .deb files created by the dpkg-buildpackage step, but I
did not install them. I don't know it that will cause other problems,
but I haven't seen any yet.

Finally- I did try to build the simple_popup program that Yves used to
report the problem, but the program would not run for me. I tried both
before and after installing the patched xserver debs. The run time error
I get is:

$ ./simple_popup 
Warning: XmManager ClassInitialize: XmeTraitSet failed

Error: attempt to add non-widget child "DropSiteManager" to parent
"simple_popup" which supports only widgets

Note that I only installed the lesstif package and not Motif.

Hope this post corrects enough of my mistakes that others can get
something work.
