Has anyone fixed xterm 6.6B to behave correctly when invoked with the -i flag
and an icon geometry?  At the moment, it seems to have two different bugs.
First, it incorrectly calculates the title bar display, using the icon width
instead of the window width to position the window title.  Second, it
initially displays the correct icon, then attempts to perform some redisplay
code that causes the icon to be rerendered as an empty rectangle.

Both of the problem are easily worked around (the icon displays correctly
after you open and close the window once, while the title bar is correctly
recalculated if you resize the window), but having to do this every time
you start X gets a little tedious.  Before I decide whether it's worth the
time to fix these minor annoyances, I thought I'd see if anyone else has
already done it.
