I'm running it from within a vncserver session using xfce4 as

these problems on another machine running X to the screen and
gnome/metacity.

I haven't seen this one before. Can you get this behavior from the
command-line? Looks like something's trashed memory (on startup, xterm
constructs the sorted help-message, but that's independent of the
resource computation - but the help-message is trashed).
I'm not sure what you mean. That *is* the behaviour I get from the
command line.
I ran strace on it in both the broken and working configurations. They
diverge at the point where the working configuration looks at a bunch of
locale files and the broken one doesn't.
Let me know if there's any specific tests you want me to run.
