    Problem Text

    The OSF/Motif Programmer's Reference (Rel 1.2) states:

    XmCreateTemplateDialog()

    "You can create the standard MessageBox pushbuttons, Cancel, Help, and OK, by
    specifying the associated callback and label string resources. Setting
    XmNsymbolPixmap or XmNmessageString creates a symbol or message label."

    Here we are trying to SET values for children that DON'T exist because
    they were NOT created at CREATION time. IF, for example, we had specified
    the XmNcancelLabelString resource at CREATION time then the "Cancel"
    button would have been created. Then it would have been ok to SET the
    XmNcancelLabelString because the "Cancel" button would have already been
    created.

    Notice that the quote above from the OSF/Motif Programmer's Reference is
    with respect to the function that CREATES the Template Dialog. It does
    NOT say that you can later go and create children by specifying the
    XmNcancelLabelString, XmNokLabelString, XmNhelpLabelString, XmNsymbolPixmap,
    or XmNmessageString with XtSetValues().

    Review Recommendation No Resolution Given
    Review Response
    A non-alignment between the reference code and its specification is
    under investigation. Thus it is recommended that a Temporary
    Interpretation be granted for this test while it remains subject to review.
    If a change to the specification results from the conclusion of this
    investigation, then this Temporary Interpretation will be converted
    to a Permanent Waiver. Otherwise this Temporary Interpretation will
    be converted to a Temporary Waiver (Minor System Fault).

    Note that the 1.2 motif documentation for XmMessageBox states:
    "If the callback, string OR pixmap symbol resources are specified, the
    appropriate child will be created."
