Thanks for the bug report.  We were using the wrong RPM name in our  
trigger to update the app-defaults file, so depending on package  
update order, you could wind up with the vendor app-defaults.  (On my  
test machine, I wound up with the Athena app-defaults, but that just  
means athena-ws updated later than xterm, and on your machine the  
order was reversed for whatever reason.)  It hasn't been a big  
problem in the past since updates to the native xterm RPM are rare.   
I've submitted a patch to fix the trigger, and also to update our app- 
defaults to be based on the new Red Hat ones.
