Yeah, I know about this one. xterm failed to build, complaining about an
"internal compiler error". However, rxvt is included (as is Eterm, and
konsole). So any of those can be used. I'm not quite sure what to do
about xterm yet.

I saw this one when I did the last install, and haven't fixed it yet. The
problem with fixing this is that it will take me a few days because of how
big and complicated the X packages are. You will also notice some broken
symlinks in / as a result of this same problem.
I may go look at the doinst.sh script and see if I can't fix it up without
rebuilding all of the X packages. That would be nice. Maybe I'll get
working on that pretty soon.
