an up-to-date sarge would have xterm patch #200

I have a hunch that this is related to the second part of the bug report.

That's a package problem.  Doing a 'strings' on xterm 210-3, I can see it's
missing the luit support.  Looking at the package diff's gives me the
configure options

	./configure \
		--enable-logging \
		--enable-wide-chars \
		--enable-256-color \
		--prefix=/usr \
		--exec-prefix=/usr \
		--mandir=/usr/share/man \
		--with-app-defaults=/etc/X11/app-defaults \
		--disable-imake \
		--enable-narrowproto

and building that, I get the same result:

	checking if you want to use mini-luit/Latin9 built-in support... no
	checking if you want to use luit... no

Doing either

	--enable-mini-luit
	--enable-luit

would enable luit.  That should be enabled.
