I'm using the latest GIT as my primary desktop. I used tdesu many times a day. I have not seen the problem.

I wonder whether there is some obscure difference among operating systems or profile configuration files that cause.

Are you using Ubuntu or a derivative? I ask only because of the sudo nature of those systems.

If you want to troubleshoot, you could rebuild tdebase with the commit 3d7141e5 reversed (which is the same as reapplying the patch from commit 2b178a53).
