[comp.windows.x] Problem with List widget inside VPaned widget

X11r3, Sun 3/60, patches 1-9
Xman run with no resources altered (internal defaults only).

While writing a token Xt program I found an irritating bug in
one or more of the List widget and the VPaned widget: I won't
post my example source because I have just seen that Xman suffers
from it too.  (Bug reports from customers have some use, after all! :-)

To reproduce: run xman.
              select "Show Both"
              wait for the two panes to appear
              with your window manager, slightly resize the xman window.

The window clears and repaints itself in the old size (a separate bug,
maybe, but never mind).  Then it clears again and redraws in the new
size -- but the List widget TAKES OVER the pane beneath it -- I mean,
it somehow moves the pane boundary right down, leaving the manpage
pane about one pixel high.

Is this a known (fixed?) problem?

Yep, this problem is fixed in R4.  Just for your reference the problems has 
very little to do with the list widget, it is the VPaned widget that is acting
incorrectly.
