No go.
Here's what I have:
~/.Xresources:
------------------------------------------------------------
xterm*VT100*geometry: 80x25
------------------------------------------------------------
~/.xinitrc
------------------------------------------------------------

if [ x"$XWINHOME" != x ]; then
XINIT_DIR=$XWINHOME/lib/X11/xinit
else

fi
sysresources=$XINIT_DIR/.Xresources

# merge in defaults and keymaps

The following is the output of xev when I hit the control button:
------------------------------------------------------------

state 0x10, keycode 37 (keysym 0xffe3, Control_L), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 characters: ""
KeyRelease event, serial 17, synthetic NO, window 0x1c00001,
root 0x2b, subw 0x0, time 2826511250, (91,21), root:(199,274),
state 0x14, keycode 37 (keysym 0xffe3, Control_L), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 characters: ""
------------------------------------------------------------
I have no idea what the heck is going on.
