Yeah, it's running the xterm 'resize' command (seperate binary that comes
with xterm), repositioning the cursor to 999/999, and reading the cursor
position, and your xterm isn't sending the report back correctly.

Probably you're not running it in an xterm.

Your path is broken.  It expects xxgdbiowin in your path.
