Bug#916349: xterm: X error (BadLength) with GNU screen



Package: xterm
Version: 338-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

After upgrading xterm to 338-1, I get X errors when using GNU screen:

zira% xterm -e screen -r
/usr/bin/xterm: warning, error event received:
X Error of failed request:  BadLength (poly request too large or internal Xlib length error)
  Major opcode of failed request:  139 (RENDER)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  20 (RenderAddGlyphs)
  Serial number of failed request:  1168
  Current serial number in output stream:  1200

This one is now always reproducible.

I've attached a compressed strace output, if this can be helpful.
