But it is visible - since I passed a FRAME_SUNKEN attribute to the FXPacker
you can see a small sunken square in the upper left-hand corner.  Of course,
in the real application I'm trying to build, the problem is that the widgets
that get packed don't fill the entire top-level window as I would like.
