From an xterm on another display, I ran:

steve-dallas# xinit /etc/athena/xdm/xlogin -L -config /etc/athena/xdm/xlogin-config -display unix:0.0 -- ./Xibm -v :0 -all &

A message got logged:

Oct 20 03:50:01 steve-dallas xlogin: Incorrect argument passed on the command line.

This isn't quite correct; the argument "ttyv0" was _missing_.
