So xterm shouldn't touch the rights if they are still correct.

A small note: As I know (not absolutely true) it is not the job of the terminal to set the rights of /dev/pts/* this will be done automaticaly on creation. So xterm shouldn't touch the rights if they are still correct. I suppose so. But I recall seeing some implementation where it was owned by root (and therefore not writable by the user). That sort of thing is why it's necessary to be able to install xterm with different permissions, according to what the platform supports... -- Thomas E.

I think it's a case where the build environment lacks a tty in its /etc/group file, and have added an option to the configure script to allow the packager to force it to work around this case (will be in #209). -- Thomas E.
