         I agree, the link order appears to be okay.

         The problem seems to be triggered in xpdf/XPDFViewer.cc a line
 1676:

                 pageNumText = XmCreateTextField(toolBar, "pageNum", args,
 n);

         and occurs in libXt (libXt-1.0.5/src/Create.c in
 _XtCreateWidget()):


         if (!ext || !ext->accepts_objects) {
         params[1] = XtName(parent);
         num_params = 2;
         XtAppErrorMsg(XtWidgetToApplicationContext(parent),
                   "nonWidget", XtNxtCreateWidget,XtCXtToolkitError,
 "attempt to add non-widget child \"%s\" to parent \"%s\" which supports
 only widgets",
                   params, &num_params);
         }


         If someone has more time to hunt this out (and/or more familiarity
 w/ X11 stuff, mine is horribly rusty) that'd be great, esp. as it seems to
 apply to multiple ports using OpenMotif.
