Yeah, I know what's going on now.
To avoid polluting the common pixmap directories in /usr/X11R6, fxtv
installs its bitmap files in a separate subtree (like fvwm2, afterstep,
etc.)
So that the standard XtResolvePathname/XtFindFile mechanism will find these
bitmaps and pixmaps, fxtv augments XFILESEARCHPATH when it starts up. If
XFILESEARCHPATH is already set, it appends to it, and the new directories
are searched. If XFILESEARCHPATH wasn't set before it sets it. Both have
the desirable affect of letting fxtv find the pixmaps, but it has the
undesirable affect for the latter of overriding the mondo hard-coded
default search path (in Xt) used when XFILESEARCHPATH isn't set. This
internal default is something like:
<XRoot>/lib/X11/%L/%T/%N%C%S:<XRoot>/lib/X11/%l/%T/%N%C%S:\
<XRoot>/lib/X11/%T/%N%C%S:<XRoot>/lib/X11/%L/%T/%N%S:\
<XRoot>/lib/X11/%l/%T/%N%S:<XRoot>/lib/X11/%T/%N%S
To keep XtResolvePathname working, fxtv should probably install this mondo
default and tack on its own piece.
