Jeremy,
Do you have something in your startup scripts that manually merges
your .Xresources? There's nothing about your change that should
affect the resources problem in any way unless that's the case. The
xinitrc race condition still exists, and if I start, e.g. NEdit from
Terminal.app it does not get its resources initialized properly. This
is a true design flaw (perhaps the *only* major one) in the launchd
scheme.
Cheers,
