Package: xterm
Version: 225-1
Severity: normal

I'm seeing a strange display problem in recent xterm versions (I think
it started in patch #223): when running Emacs under screen in xterm,
ringing the visual bell sometimes makes all bold fonts display as normal
fonts.  Ringing the bell again (with C-g) sometimes makes the bold come
back, but not always.  Alternating C-l (Emacs redisplay) and C-a C-l
(screen redisplay) sometimes works, but again, not always.

Since xterm is the only package that changed (emacs21 and screen
haven't been updated for ages), I'm filing this bug against xterm.
Unfortunately this is not easily reproducible since it's quite random, I
can provide more info if needed.

Thanks,
