Last August I changed our R3 xterm to beep and shove "***" into the
beginning of the icon name of the iconified xterm when output appeared,
so you'd know when something was happening.  Our local X Master sent
these changes to MIT.  Not as nice as the little box that X10 xterm would
draw for me, but much better than nothing.  I also had to fix awm to send
map notify events to the real client as well as to the client frame, so
that xterm would notice.  RTL seems to work fine.  UWM does not.
