If you're referingn to the twm window manager, the answer is that it does
not use Xaw, therefore it won't use Xaw3d.

Xaw3d can be used by any application that uses Xaw, and if your application
is linked with shared libraries, you can replace Xaw with Xaw3d (renaming
Xaw3d to Xaw) and your applications will take on the 3-D button look and
feel.
