I had this problem too.  Fix it by removing all the Emacs Xresources
with xrdb -remove.  Or just comment them out and restart X.  Apparently
one of them was making Emacs unhappy.

I didn't have time to diagnose the offending resource, but it has to be
in the intersection of our two sets.  So here's mine:

Emacs.background: black
Emacs.foreground: white
Emacs.font:fixed
Emacs.cursorColor: green3
Emacs.pointerColor: white
Emacs.pointerColorBackground: black
Emacs.bitmapIcon: on
