Yes, that's a good point.  The app-defaults or X resources might be
configured such that they're not stock, and are provoking the SEGV.  That
would still be a bug in the underlying application or libraries, as one
shouldn't be able to DoS XTerm with bogus configuration settings.

But until someone can reproduce this problem, we're stuck.  Tagging.
