This is a bug in Eterm and it has been fixed in the upcoming next 
release of Eterm.

To solve this problem now you either need to compile it with MMX 
support, e.g.

   make -DWITH_MMX install clean

or in case your machine has no support for MMX put the quick patch that 
I attached to this mail into /usr/ports/x11/eterm/files/ and build Eterm 
as usual.
