This is likely an openmotif issue.  I have seen these problems with the GUI 
when using openmotif 2.3.2 or 2.3.3

I recommend removing your current version and installing 2.3.1

RPMs can be found atftp://ftp.ics.com/openmotif/2.3/2.3.1/   - be sure to 
download and install both
openmotif-2.3.1* and openmotif-devel-2.3.1* for your
system.

I tried building GEMPAK 5.11.4 on my Fedora 12 x86_64 machine but I've
run into an interesting problem.  nmap2 has no icons and it is
impossible to load data.  Nalarm works fine until I try to open a new
product and then the buttons are so large that the product is not
visible.  Nwx behaves similarly.

To build, I installed the libXp-devel, libX11-devel, openmotif-devel,
and xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-75dpi packages and edited
Makeinc.linux64_gfortran to point to /usr/include/openmotif for the
MOTIFINC directory, and to /usr/lib64/openmotif for X11LIBDIR.

I didn't find any obvious problems in make.out, so I've made it
available on the Intertubes in case anyone can use it to make sense of
what I'm seeing:
