I had this problem too until I removed a specification for
xterm.IconFont from my .Xdefaults.  It was rather inconvenient (:-),
especially in the case that the icon that needed to do damage repair
was my login window - down went the server and all my tools!

In a related vein, how do I get ActiveIcon and AllowIconInput, along
with some identifying label attached to the icon?
