xterm patch #172

	+ fixes to make repainting of 256-color example work properly
	  (reports by Abigail Brady and Scott A Crosby).

	   + set flag in "AllocateAnsiColor()" to ensure the color
	     is allocated once only.

	   + fix check in "ScrnRefresh", which was comparing
	     background colors only if the ANSI foreground colors also were set.

	+ merge "Error()" calls and some "exit()" calls into "SysError()", and
	  change that to add the brief explanation for each error code which is
	  provided in the manpage.  Change a few "SysError()", calls to avoid
	  using code 1, to avoid confusion with exit status from places that do
	  not use "SysError()".

	+ simplify logic used to open a debug logfile as the standard error.

	+ modify the "-e" option so that if it fails, xterm will check if only
	  one argument follows, e.g., it was quoted, and then retry using
	  "sh -e".

	+ modify parsing of DECUDK string parameter to allow a comma between
	  pairs of hexadecimal digits (Ray Neuman <raymond@one.com.au> reports
	  that "real" terminals accept this; perhaps they simply ignore
	  unexpected characters).

	+ fix a few problems with the "$TERMCAP" string generated
	  by "resize":

	   + for Bourne shell, add an "export" command.
	     This was missing as far back as X11R5.

	   + escape exclamation marks, used in xterm's reset string.

	   + translate literal "\177\" to "^?".

	+ improve configure check for "tgetent()" to work when
	  "$TERMCAP" has been set to a specific entry.

	+ modify "minstall.sh" to use "%" rather than "@",
	  to avoid problems with AFS (report by Zdenek Sekera).

	+ list fatal error codes from "error.h" in the manpage,
	  remove unused codes in "error.h".

	+ use more explicit wording for manpage list of color resources, since
	  at least one user confused the generic names such as "black" with the
	  names in rgb.txt (the latter are now used).

	+ minor fix to description of 1003 mouse mode in ctlseqs.ms
	  (Larry Riedel).
