Bingo! I did install XiG Motif in the /usr/X11R6 tree so it must have trashed my /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config/ files as you have pointed out -- really nice of XiG to do that for me. How should I have installed XiG Motif to avoid this? In the meantime I'll re-extract XFree86-3.3.2 to correct the problem (or better yet I'll build the latest port for XFree86). Thanks for the tips!
