I just solved this problem (or rather, it solved itself).  I had the
following in my .tcshrc -

switch ($TERM)
	case xterm:
	case xterm-debian
	xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources
	breaksw
	default:
	breaksw
endsw

I deleted that and things have been fine.  Why did *that* snippet cause
the problem?  I don't know.  It just did.
