I have a feeling your real error is above that.  Maybe fonts, maybe
locales.  Don't forget that xterm split off the main X dist.  But, in
regards to your question, yes, X has been broken in slink.  It's on my
list of the big 3 things that need to be fixed right now.

I wish there was a solution better than downgrade to the hamm version.
