Thanks Mike, that makes sense. Yes, I am running xrdb from my .xinitrc to load
up .Xdefaults and screen size specific xterm settings. I’m not making use of
the cpp features, so -nocpp would work in my environment; the only useful
things would be HEIGHT and WIDTH, but I use xdpyinfo to get the screen
dimensions.
