I'm not sure whether it's a bug. If you have the "xrdb -merge - << EOF"
stuff in your .xinitrc, you have to put the .Xdefaults stuff in too.
Mine looks like this: 

xrdb -merge - << EOF
Xft.dpi: 96
Xft.hinting: 1
Xft.hintstyle: hintmedium
xterm*font: -misc-console-medium-r-normal--16-160-72-72-c-160-iso10646-1
xterm*VT100.Translations: #override\n\
        <KeyPress>Prior : scroll-back(1,page)\n\
        <KeyPress>Next : scroll-forw(1,page)
xterm*reverseVideo: true
xterm*background: Black
xterm*foreground: grey80
xterm*cursorColor: grey50
xterm*scrollBar: true
xterm*fullCursor: true
xterm*cursorBlink: true
xterm*scrollLines: 512
xterm*rightScrollBar: true
xterm*titleBar: false
EOF
