[comp.windows.x] XR4 twm with IBM-AED display?

Hi, 

We have just installed XR4. It is really amazing how easy and
smoothly it is.  Everythging works very well.
However, I am having with <twm> working on my RT <aed> 
display. 

Here is the problem:

I can open xterm on <aed> without <twm> and everything works fine.
However, when I try to open xterm on <aed> with <twm>, the
server core dumps with the following message:

=====================================================================
XIO:  fatal IO error 32 (Broken pipe) on X server "sherman:1.0"
      after 67471 requests (67448 known processed) with 3 events remaining.
      The connection was probably broken by a server shutdown or KillClient.

Floating exception   Xibm :1 -aed (core dumped)
=====================================================================


I trace the core stack and this is what it says:
=====================================================================
ldiv$$()  from _.aedBigStippleFillArea+0xa4
_.aedBigStippleFillArea(r2=0x0000007d, 0x0006c4f2, 0x1005b718,
        0x00000028,   00000000)  from _.aedPaintWindowTile+0x8e
_.aedPaintWindowTile(0x10036740, r3=  00000000, r4=0x10030c10)  from _.aedPaintWindow+0xa6
_.aedPaintWindow(r2=0x0000007d, r3=  00000000, r4=0x10030c10)  from _.HandleExposures+0x48
_.HandleExposures(r2=0x0000007d)  from _.MapWindow+0x188
_.MapWindow(r2=0x0000007d, r3=  00000000)  from _.ProcMapWindow+0x42
_.ProcMapWindow(r2=0x0000007d)  from _.Dispatch+0x134
_.Dispatch()  from _.main+0x39c
_.main(r2=0x0000007d,   00000000)  from start+0x2e
start()
=====================================================================

Dose anyone has the similar problem? Any suggestions as to what I can do?
Oh!, by the way, I ran <twm> without any <.twmrc> file (The twm-program default
was used.).

Thankyou very much.
