I'll wager that this problem has nothing to do with xterm. I noticed

Yeah, I'm still seeing it after trying a few suggestions people have
made.
I've narrowed the problem down to this line in my .tcshrc
alias precmd 'echo -n "^[]2;`whoami` on ${HOST} -
$cwd^G^[]1;${HOST}^G"'
which sets the window title before each command prompt using vt escape
sequences. So, when I run an xterm, I get the problem. Commenting
this out of the .tcshrc makes the problem go away.
I also get 'xterm crashes' when I run scp. scp shows a little progress
meter, and seems to use vt escape codes to do it. If I do:
set term tty
then run scp, everything runs just fine.
