1) downgraded back to motif 2.2.4, rebuilt with the same CVS download
from last Friday, and the boxes were back - no readable menus.
2) did a cvs update with Curt's tweak, rebuilt, and presto, menu fonts
look fine.  They look a bit bigger, but no complaints here.

Now menus are readable, and there's no slider menu problem, either.  Bravo.

THANKS!
