Aha. I think I'm getting somewhere.
If I run xterm with the -e option, regardless of -ls being present or
not, the shell used to spawn the -e command is *NOT* a login shell.
This way, when I run:
xterm => not login shell
xterm -ls => login shell
xterm -e /bin/sh => not login shell
xterm -ls -e /bin/sh => not login shell either
So it's not the -ls option that is causing your aterm windows to be
non-login shells, but it looks like it is the -e option that does this.
