Actually the problem is that rxvt-unicode uses the username as owner
and tty as group. I think the easy approach is to include the user
into the tty group, and that solves the problem.
For some reason when recompiling tty the permissions were lost. I was
not expecting that, :-)
On the other hand there are other approaches like chmod +s, and some
others... But I believe what I did before, and was lost with glibc
recompilation, was being part of the tty group.
If there's a recommended way, please let me know...
The problem I had is now identified and solved. Thanks,
