In upstream source, xterm uses both XBell and XkbBell.

The latter is used if the configure check works (which it happens to do here -
and on about half of my platform builds).

I see that /usr/bin/xterm from Debian's package does not (doing a strings on
the binary); that indicates a problem with the Debian package, since the
check's against a roughly 10-year-old feature.

Right, configure doesn't use XkbBell in the debian build because the
package doesn't build-depend on libxkbfile-dev (which provides
<X11/extensions/XKBbells.h>).  I'll try to remember to fix that.

thanks (barring bug-fixes, I don't have any plans to change that corner of xterm)
