Not sure what you mean by 80 lines.  It is 80 char wide
and 25 lines high.

My term is an xterm called like this:
xterm -bg black -fg khaki -fn \
 -bitstream-terminal-medium-r-normal--18-140-100-100-c-110-iso8859-1 \
 -geometry 80x25

Other than the flags I've done nothing to its settings.
My Xresource settings have been in place for ages.

I've used that for a very long time.  But only started seeing this
from yum recently.

I reverted my xterm package to 179 a while ago waiting for upstream to
settle down on what settings it will have.  I was having too much
trouble with the new xterm pkgs using various progs.  Even changing
the erase char to ^H didn't cure all of them.  But 179 has none of
these problems.

I'm using xterm from xterm-179 (reverted from most recent)
It wasn't broken before updating.  Do you know or can you guess what
exactly is broken?
