Is this a known problem with R2 xterm? When my window manager reads xterm's
WM_HINTS property, it come back internally inconsistent. Specifically, the flags
field has bit 6 set, indicating the presence of a window group id, but the
property only contains eight 32-bit words, i.e. the window group id field is
missing. A server error seems unlikely because this problem has occurred
identically on two different servers (one R2, the other R1). Anybody else seen
this?
