I don't have etch (or amd64...), but have Debian/testing - and lots
of versions of xterm.  With that combination, I'm not seeing the
problem - whether it's in xterm or the X libraries.

If you have the time, compiling the xterm source (with the appropriate
options to match Debian's configuration) could perhaps get a usable
walkback from the debugger.  I can offer advice on that...
