It's still unnecessary. teTeX installs its binaries into
/usr/local/bin and the support files into
/usr/local/share/texmf. Works fine for me.

Error messages? What's your $PATH? Do you still have your old TeX
stuff around?

I can't check now, but ISTR that /usr/local/bin/xdvi (a shell script)
sets the XAPPRESDIR to /usr/local/share/texmf/xdvi, where XDvi
resides.
