[comp.windows.x] Anyone got XWanderer to work ?

I just pulled XWanderer from the archive (from the original comp.sources.games
distribution), and after a few hours of work it still doesn't work. I have 
checked everything which crossed my mind (GC's are reasonably, Pixmaps are 
allocated and seem to be filled, the CopyArea call seems to be done right, the
pixel values for white and black are OK, the CopyArea routine is actually 
called), but it still doesn't work. Actually, it works fine, except it looks 
like it draws the little symbols in black on a black background, which doesn't
look to good and makes it very challenging to play :-)

I am no Xlib programming expert. Has anyone got it to work ? What's the trick ?

Environment: DECstation 5000, Ultrix V4.0 R179, DECWindows 4.0 R164.
