Please see my comment #5. Most of the bugs are already fixed in lesstif2 (one
very new one is still pending), but lesstif1 is a mess. Patches do not apply to
this version, one security patch is several hundred lines which need to be
applied manually into a totally different source code. That's we dropped
lesstif1 from the seeds (germinate has still not been updated, can somebody
please do this?).

So only fixing lesstif1 in Warty is still outstanding. Martin Schulze told me
that a patch was being worked on, but it will take a while. However, nothing
actually uses lesstif1 in Warty (it just went in by a seed "accident"), so it's
not that urgent.
