I'm using urxvt with the options `urxvt -title x-console -e
~/.bin/x-console -- screen -RR` where ~/.bin/x-console doesn't do
anything except exporting LC_ALL=en_US.utf8 and `locale`. (I've also
tried just a simple urxvt -e screen -RR, and it also leaves processes
behind.)
And indeed if I start screen inside a VT and reattach it inside X,
it doesn't leave any defunct processes...
