[gentoo-amd64] Eterm wierdness

[Jason <gentoo@lakedaemon.net>]

Got a wierd one. Sometimes (usually after a memory intensive task, like 
emerging ooffice), Eterms in which I'm logged in as root will cause a 
PrintScreen whenever I hit an arrow key.

To avoid the printjobs, I start Eterm with '--print-pipe /usr/bin/true', 
which prevents the waste of paper, but crashes the Eterm.  Once the 
condition trips (after emerging ooffice), it is 100% repeatable.  root 
logins in xterm do _not_ exhibit the same behavior.  User logins in 
either Eterm or xterm don't do it either.

I'm thinking it is some sort of memory access error in bash when 
'TERM=Eterm', but I'm having trouble narrowing it down.  I tried using 
the Eterm.ti file ('tic -o /usr/share/terminfo/ Eterm.ti') from the 
Eterm tarball (Gentoo recently started using the one provided by 
ncurses).  No luck.

If I shut down the X server and restart it, it goes away.

Anyone have a clue where I can look?  I'd like to isolate and fix it so 
I can just provide a patch to the appropriate folks.  For all I know, it 
could be a problem in X or enlightenment...

thx,

Jason.
