No, actually that is not a bug, but a feature. It is not related to
quartz-wm. In fact, I did not use any window manager. xterm accepts an
option -geometry <width>x<height>; however, width and height are
expected to be the number of characters, not pixels. In my case this
means that I have a font size that leaves a little room on the right
side of the display or when extendend to an additional character, it
goes beyond the right display border.
I have tried evilwm, thinking that it may support me in calculating the
right size, but it did not work either.
The Dock does not borther me, because I planned to run my full screen
terminal in X11 rootless mode.

Watch them in your bug report list. They may be answered or change their
status. It may take a while.
