This looks like a problem with the latest luit.  I can start xterm,
but I only get a /bin/sh prompt, not my usual tcsh prompt.

Stracing shows that luit is called with `luit -argv0 -tcsh', but nowhere
in the strace tcsh is actually started.  Rather, it looks like luit
starts /bin/sh with argv[0] set to -tcsh instead.
