If I have any input it'll be WITH_X11_TCP or X11_LISTEN_TCP or similar.
If the upstream xdm is fixed to turn off listen_tcp by default we'll
want one flag to turn the behavior back on for both xdm and startx so
naming the make variable startx would only serve to obscure it from xdm
users (myself included).
