I've noticed on occasion that a user logs in with the standard session
files and everything starts up, but the initial xterm.  The user gets
the message "Creating initial xterm window..." but the window never
appears.  I've seen this three times.  Twice on a VS2000 and once on a
PVAX.  On the PVAX I had the user try it again and they got the same
result three times in a row on the same machine; when they moved to a
different machine everything worked fine.
