Thanks for the feedback, everyone. I tracked down a note in the Nedit archives that suggests the problem is with Lesstif-0.93.36 and suggests using Lesstif-0.93.0. I gave this a try but ran into a number of errors when trying to recompile Nedit.
I've also tried compiling with OpenMotif3. With OpenMotif the File->Open stuff seemed to work for me, but I found that when I clicked the close button in the window manager, the whole application would quit. That behavior was more annoying than the Lesstif behavior, so I went back to Lesstif.
