If anyone actually wants to put the xterm status line in, please be
very careful about porting the old X10 code.  There were bugs in the
status line code that caused xterms to die occasionally on resize.  I
personally disabled the this code on our xterm since the problem of
disappearing windows was far more disconcerting to users than lack of
a status line.
