Nothing in /usr/bin but there is an lxterminal.exe.stackdump in my home
directory (I'm guessing that it isn't really helpful though. It probably
only crashed because there was no XWin to connect to).

I've attached the lxterminal stack trace to this message (this is from
one of the xlaunch attempts because lxterminal is what I start locally
with XWin).

Here is the attempt:
