Subject: Trouble with xterm

Environment: YDL CS 1.2 on an iBook.
I use fvwm2 as my window manager, and when I launch an xterm, I get an error
if a particular X resource is set. If I have
xterm*eightBitInput: false
and then launch an xterm, it pops up very briefly, disappears immediately,
and the shell I launched it from gets
xterm: fatal pty error 23 (errno=22) on tty /dev/pts/3
If I set
xterm*eightBitInput: true
then it works fine. I normally set xterm*eightBitInput to false in my
.Xdefaults file, so that the keyboard's meta keys pass ESC-char sequences to
XEmacs windows.
Anyone else run into this, have any idea what might be up here, or have
suggestions for a fix?
