Ah, I see what's wrong now... If you run xprop(1) on a, let's say, full-screen'd
xterm window, it will show something like:

_NET_WM_STATE(ATOM) = ...  _NET_WM_STATE_FULLSCREEN ...

indicating that the the full-screen EWMH property's set; but, after a restart
this is lost. Doesn't look like ctwm handles these EWMH properties that're
already set on a window when it starts. This isn't a NetBSD bug, more like
a ctwm feature request...
