>Description:
Some update between r237683 and r237740 has caused a regression with xfce4's 
Terminal program:  An attempt to resize a window by dragging a corner results 
in the window immediately closing.

I have reproduced this on a Pentium 4 machine with an old ati radeon 9000 era 
card and on newer machines with radeon 4xxxx cards.  There is one exception I 
have noted: a Terminal window with the results of
svn log | less
can be resized without closing.

While I have not exactly bisected the problem to r237738, this regression is 
similar to one I have reported for DragonFly BSD after a bisection to an update 
to libedit.  The identical symptoms lead me to believe the problem will be 
manifested beyond xfce4's Terminal and beyond the radeon cards tested.
>How-To-Repeat:
Update FreeBSD 9.0-STABLE to r237740 or later and resize a window of xfce4's 
Terminal program.
