I am reindexing all:
  Index: Reindex ALL Maps

/usr/local/share/xastir/maps holds:
.   o37122h1.fgd  o37122h1.tif     tigermap.geo    xUSRadar.geo
..  o37122h1.tfw  terraserver.geo  toposerver.geo

Map Chooser has only the .geo files

No. This is what the xterm is showing:
jacrei at Orinda:~> xastir &
[1] 10740


Built-in map types:
      gnis   USGS GNIS Datapoints
       map   APRSdos Maps
       map   WinAPRS/MacAPRS/X-APRS Maps
       pdb   PocketAPRS Maps

Support for these additional map types has been compiled in:
       geo   Image Map (ImageMagick library, many formats allowed)
       geo   URL (Internet maps via wget)
       shp   ESRI Shapefile Maps (Shapelib library)
       xpm   X Pixmap Maps (XPM library)
