That's irrelevent. My fix holds whether xterm is built through imake or
no, it is relevant. I considered a change like that some time ago,
decided that it was too ugly to bother with, and that it would be
better to do it properly sometime, leaving the warning as a reminder
than cover it up.
I agree my "fix" is a coverup, but, as I see it, this has gone on for waaayyy
too long. xterm's tty handling needs a major rewrite, perhaps along the
lines of OpenSSH's, and I just don't see that happening any time soon. So
perhaps, a post-it on your refrigerator would be more productive than
reminding everybody else.
