I tried rebuilding libxt under babbage:
% LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PWD/debian/tmp/usr/lib/ ldd /usr/bin/xterm
% LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PWD/debian/tmp/usr/lib/ xterm
xterm Xt error: Unresolved inheritance operation
didn't help
But the fact it did for Jon is an interesting indication; Jon, what is

The only bit of assembler I could find in libXt and which could be arch
specific is:
asm (.data\n\
.globl __XtInherit\n\
__XtInherit: jmp *_y \n\
_y: .long ___XtInherit \n\
.text \n);
and it touches the inheritance logic apparently, but it's only for CYGWIN.
I also tried clearing LDFLAGS of -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions; didn't help
either.

Julien Cristau helpfully pointed out that xterm was setgid and hence
LD_LIBRARY_PATH wouldn't work, and indeed my rebuilds of libxt with
-march=armv4t and without LDFLAGS both work if I copy xterm to a new
binary without the setgid flag; thanks!
I'll try a simple rebuild now.

Sorry, my testing was incorrect in the previous comment; ALL arches are
affected, the issue is with LDFLAGS -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions and a
simple rebuild on amd64 shows the same bug.

Loic,
- my platform is the SheevaPlug with Marvell PXA 168 Sheeva processor -
though interestingly it lists as an ARM926 in the kernel log:

Jon, thanks, it's not platform specific; probably it didn't happen in
your rebuild because your dpkg-dev doesn't set LDFLAGS like the Ubuntu
one.

I have the same issue with Jaunty on the SheevaPlug platform (ARM
little-endian) using the Xtightvnc VNC server and ICE window manager -
xterm and many other X utilities fail to launch from the remote desktop
and generate Unresolved inheritance operation errors in .xsession-

On my platform, rebuilding libXt (on the target platform) seems to solve
the problem; the X apps then launch without problem. So this suggests
it's a problem with the libXt library.

Found a possibly relevant thread - sounds like there could be issues between
some Xt functionality and shared libraries.
However, I don't understand the detail, and it's possible these issues do not
apply to ELF platforms.

Could you please attach your ~/.xsession-errors?

By the way, arm-ports-ubuntu is a mirror of ports.ubuntu.com. I have checked
that this is up to date.
In any case, the problem described in this bug report has been happening for
some time.

This happens within GDM, in a raw X server, and also over remote X to a
Cygwin/X server.
So it looks more like some issue with the X clients or Xt, rather than
an X-server specific issue or an issue specific to running a particular
kind of session...

Hmm that's weird; could you check your .xsession-errors? Does this
happen in an empty session running just xterm?
How to you start your session? GDM?

At least one other guy on my side has seen the problem... it would be
interesting to know whether anyone else can reproduce it.

This removes the ICE errors from the log, but otherwise there no change. Oh
well, it was a long shot :(
