OK, I removed the no-bitmaps.conf x11 symlink and restarted X. Now eg xterm -fn 6x10 -fa "" works as advertised to give me normal xterm bitmap font.
However, my custom xterm bitmap font, which I access by: xterm -fa Zen produces an xterm with my custom font, but a very/extra- large spacing above each line. Any custom or bitmap font gurus or xterm font junkies who might know what is now wrong? (I guess there could be some font parameter which was previously being ignored, but is now being honored? dunno myself).
