Weird... are you running xterm inside GNOME or KDE session? Have you 
tried with another console (gnome-terminal or konsole)? Does the same 
happen when you go fall to init 1 from a tty and run xterm from there?

It could be that some environmental variable is taking preference over 
xterm settings but I'm running GNOME in up-to-date testing and this is 
not happening here :-?
