Fresh FC1 hang/lock-up with sawfish/xterm

[Neil Bird]

   Have a fresh FC1 install;  whenever I try to replace metacity with 
sawfish, and then run an xterm* the whole thing hangs on me 
(sawfish/gnmoe-session, not a box lock-up).

   I'm absolutely stumped!

   I *think* I can run sawfish safely every time from a remote ssh 
session (DISPLAY=:0.0 sawfish &), but if I try it from the gnome login, 
I'll get a few seconds of activity, then one of sawfish/gnome-session 
hangs on me.  I've even tried unsetting 'SESSION_MANAGER' before running 
sawfish (as that's not set on the 'OK' ssh session), although I note 
there are a couple of other SM-related variables I may try.

   I've even tried on a brand new user account with all default/blank 
settings, and *that* does it!  It all works fnie at home, but my box 
there has been upgraded through RH6.1+ to FC1 (not FC2 yet).


* - I *think* it's only xterm I have grief with.
