   This problem is due to a bug in Openwindow 3.5 (shipped with
Solaris 5.5) and is fixed by the patch 103210-06 (Jul/17/96)
furnished by Sun.  You may retrieve it for example at the following
URL (for South Europe):

	http://sunsolve.sun.fr/

   then
		Product patches ->  OpenWindows

   An alternative is to use the X11R6 X server, but you will in this
case: 

	- lack the Display Postscript X extension
	- not use optimaly new types of monitors like the TCX
