nedit doesn't properly refresh display

[Emmanuel Florac]

HI all, I've just upgraded my system to Slackware 12.2 and now, nedit
doesn't refresh the display properly : when scrolling up, it simply
fill its window with a couple of random lines from the file. Selecting
all forces refreshing; however that makes nedit close to unusable.

I've tried compiling nedit myself; it's slightly better in a way (it
refreshes correctly) but worse in some other way (I have to clear all
my .Xresources customization or nedit crashes instantly). Furthermore,
I'd need to compile and install openmotif because the lesstif on my
system isn't supported but I postponed this, because I have no other
significant motif application which isn't lesstif compatible.

I think the nedit 5.5 official linux binary is well due a refresh or
perhaps a new version to run on latest x.org, isn't it?
