[GRASSLIST:5890] Grass OSX aqua - x11 for testing

Hi all, I have had some weird issues arise with the new osx aqua 
interface (looks great!).

1) I have been getting some weird crashes of Wish using the new 
interface.  No error messages are reported, Wish just quits, though my 
GRASS session is still active within X11.  I haven't been able to 
reproduce the errors, and they have occurred from a variety of 
programs.  (r.shaded.relief, r.proj, using the display manager to query 
a vector, etc.).  If I had to guess, they seem to occur when a program 
finishes.  I can start up wish again within the same grass session with 
d.m, and there aren't any problems.  It isn't a major problem yet, but 
it is a bit frustrating.

2) The scroll bars don't work like they should in aqua.  You can click 
and drag them, but if you click in an open space to jump the scroll 
(left, middle, or right click), the bar moves, but the window doesn't.

3) When a new dialog opens, say for r.proj, it shows up blank.  You can 
get the text to appear by moving a scroll bar.  This happens probably 
90% of the time for me.

Anybody else had the same problems?

-Ian
