[comp.windows.x] widget class version mismatch message with xchrom

I should know the answer to this....but I don't.

I recently extracted xchrom ("chromocron") from comp.sources.x.
After changing all the "$" to "{" and adding the missing "}" (a bitnet
site must have munged the source), I compiled it and ran it.  Running
it gets this warning:

Warning: Widget class Xchrom version mismatch:
  widget 110004 vs. intrinsics 110003.

xchrom has its own widget (Xchrom), which seems to be the culprit.  I know that
my X environment is up to date:  libraries and include files are consistent
and are all X11R4.  If I had to guess, I'd say that xchrom was written for
X11R3 and that there is some minor modification that I need to make to
get it to run properly under R4.  What should I be looking for?

It also seems that xchrom can't tolerate arguments:  xchrom -help will
make it core dump, for example (as will "xchrom -display ...").

Any clues?  Mail me and I'll summarize.
