That was a really interesting description from Samuel Thibault.
I spent a good while picking over the kernel code on the
assumption that the kernel's signal was erroneously being
subjected to the security checks that would apply to xterm.

The "xterm sends a SIGHUP" part, if done directly, looks
like a bug. This signal should be kernel-generated.
There does not appear to be a legitimate reason for xterm
to be sending this signal.

The rxvt code is correct IMHO.

So I guess the xterm package needs a clone of this.
