X windows locking up

X windows locking up

Does anybody know why X will hang after starting a new process from a
motif menu?  I'm running it on a Sun Sparc 20 running 4.1.3 and when I
choose New Window or another appl. from a menu, it starts a process but X
windows locks up.  I can't get a menu or click to highlight a window.  
The process is started with -sh -c in front of it and I think that might
be the problem but I don't know how to change it.  Any ideas?
