Assuming I should run "ktrace -di xterm" it doesn't show any failure
condition at the end, i.e. the last lines from the kdump are
--
90075 ktrace NAMI "/usr/X11R6/bin/xterm"
90075 ktrace ARGS
[0] = "xterm"
--
To me that last line looks like the process launches successfully, yet
no xterm window shows. All errors that are shown before these lines
are because it tries to locate xterm in various system-folders until
it finds it in /usr/X11R6/bin
@Dave: I'm running using snapshots, so it will take me some time to
get to the stage where I can try your diff. I haven't gone through
building xenocara before (aware that the FAQ describes how to do it).
