I think it might depend on whether you compiled Xaw3d with SCROLLBAR_ARROWS
or not.  My Xaw3d doesn't have arrows on its scrollbars and I see the bug.
But Gerd's Xaw3d does have arrows.

I think it's specific to Xaw3d, indeed.

Do you have arrows at each end of your scrollbar (and they behave
Motif-like) or do they look (and behave) like Xaw only with a 3d effect ?

I should try that indeed.
Also because when I tried to debug it I got stuck at the point where
Emacs calls Xt dispatcher and the dispatcher just doesn't do anything
(instead of calling back Emacs' scrollbar functions).
