Bug#347308: xterm frequently mis-detects its window size

["Robert J. Macomber" <xbxyha@rojoma.com>]

Package: xterm
Version: 208-1

With the ion window manager (which does not honor applications' window
size requests) xterm frequently doesn't notice that it hasn't gotten
the size which it has requested.  Presumbably this the the bug
described in http://modeemi.fi/~tuomov/ion/faq.html#3.1 but the
condition has gotten much worse with the newest xterm package, with
many more new xterm windows needing to be manually sent a resize event
before registering the real window size.
