Bug#229566: xterm fails to start with EINVAL

[Stefan Foerster <debian@stefan-foerster.de>]

Package: xterm
Version: 4.3.0-0pre1v1
Severity: important
Tags: sid

When trying to start an xterm, the window just opens for some seconds,
then closes again. Typing "xterm" in an aterm shows the following
output:

helena:~$ xterm
xterm: fatal pty error 23 (errno=22) on tty /dev/pts/3
