Xterm incorrectly deals with return values from XParseGeometry when
figuring out where to place the icon (if you specified an icon
geometry spec on the command line and gave a negative x or y offset).
It assumes that offset values returned by XParseGeometry are absolute
values, but in truth they can negative.

The following trival change to the IconGeometry procedure in misc.c
fixes this.  From:

		if((i & XValue) && (i & XNegative))
			*ix = DisplayWidth() - *ix - screen->iconVwin.width - 2 *
			 screen->borderwidth;
		if((i & YValue) && (i & YNegative))
			*iy = DisplayHeight() - *iy - screen->iconVwin.height - 2 *
			 screen->borderwidth;

To:

		if((i & XValue) && (i & XNegative))
			*ix = DisplayWidth() + *ix - screen->iconVwin.width - 2 *
			 screen->borderwidth;
		if((i & YValue) && (i & YNegative))
			*iy = DisplayHeight() + *iy - screen->iconVwin.height - 2 *
			 screen->borderwidth;
