Could you tell us a little about the display device?  Were you sitting
in front of an SGI console runing IRIX 6.2 and whatever version of
4dwm shipped with that?  Or are you running on a different display?

Output of xdpyinfo might be helpful.  Also, there's a way to turn on
some more debugging output, I think with "x01c -debug" or something
like that.  If you care to single step through xwin.c, you might be
able to figure out which visual it's trying to use, that might help.
