The bug doesn't appear to be in xterm, because disabling compiz-fusion
by adding the following line:
export WINDOW_MANAGER=metacity
to $HOME/.gnomerc
causes the bug to no longer occur.
The stack trace from "gdb /usr/bin/xterm" (i.e. without debug symbols)
and doing "run" over and over again until the problem reproduces is:
(no debugging symbols found)
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

So disabling compiz-fusion appears to be another workaround.
