The culprit is the code that computes flat border RGB:

if (isWhiteBackground())
   border = getColor(BORDER);
else
   border = display.getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_WIDGET_BACKGROUND);

This code works well when form background is lighter than widget background.
However, on Motif form and widget backgrounds are the same, so borders are
painted but cannot be seen.

The proposed fix is to test for this and use SWT.COLOR_WIDGET_DARK_SHADOW in
case widget and form backgrounds are the same. I tested this on Motif and it
looks very good (dark gray border on gray background). This will also hold when
colors are changed i.e. border will always be of the same shade as the
background, just darker.

Michael, I propose this for RC3 - please vote if you agree.

Raising priority because this affects ALL trees and tables in all forms on Motif.

The last two comments are really by me - I made them from a Motif machine 
previously used by Wassim :-).

Fixed and released.
