We provided for the customizing of one's "login" window by merging a
users resources in before starting xterm -name login. This is no longer
possible as the xtem that is started is :

     (xterm -geometry 80x56+0+0 &)

This means to customize the first window requires 1) Setting the
variable skip_initial_xterm and then inserting the proper stuff in
.startup.X

This is not intuiutively obvious.
