I'm having a problem with twm and an X11R2 xterm.  I'm running twm
on my X11R3 Sun 3/50 and have several windows open, everything is
just fine.  When I rlogin to a motorola box, and try to start up
an xterm from there and display on my tube, it hangs partway through
the startup.  (Yes, xhost & other permissions are all ok).
If twm is not running, the xterm pops up a window just fine.

The version of twm I have is:
fizban$ what /usr/local/X11/twm | grep twm
/usr/local/X11/twm
        twm $Revision: 1.2 $
        twm $Date: 88/10/18 11:36:29 $

Is there a newer version of twm that fixes this problem?  Has anyone else
seen it?  My alternatives at this point are to run a different window
manager, none at all, or track down the bug myself.
