After some tinkering, I think I know why it breaks. I thought that
when xterm processes a tab, it blanks the underlying cells. This doesn't
seem to be the case, so I've fixed that in r226099.

Would it be possible for you to test HEAD r226099 or apply this patch to
your source tree?

	http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/head/sys/teken/teken_subr.h?r1=223574&r2=226099&view=patch

If so, there's a fair chance I can get it squeezed into 9.0. Thanks!
