How did you set XQuartz to start nothing? I don't know if it's the
same for 10.4 but I know that XQuartz now uses the defaults system
'defaults read org.macosforge.xquartz.x11' look for the line
'app_to_run' and check to see if xterm is listed there.

Even if it's not there, you can try: defaults write
org.macosforge.xquartz.x11 app_to_run ""
That should set the default application as nothing.
