apparent cursor bug

[Ric]

For what it is worth, no problems on MDK 9 using 
#> xterm -version
XFree86 4.2.0(166) 
and cvs-24hrs.  It always has the "I" pointer in the window and the
funky pointer in the scrollbar and always returns to normal when xterm
window is closed.  
pointerShape (class Cursor) is the vt100 Xresource; maybe
something(RH?) is trying to change it from the default value('' xterm
'').
I just did  xrdb -q  to list mine and found that something has added
the xterm*reverseWrap: true  (which is strange because it is already in
the Xresources...).

A suggestion.  You will probably have to logout/login afterwards to
restore settings but you can try 
xrdb ~/.Xdefaults 
(or wherever your .Xdefaults might be) and see if the problem goes
away.
