Sorry for responding to my own post, but I've got some results. 
Switching the preference from 'Use default login shell for this user' to
'Use this shell: /sw/bin/bash' did the trick.  Now the question is,
'where is XDarwin locating the default login shell?'  Another
interesting point:  editing the plist manually did not do the trick.  I
switched it from /bin/tcsh to /sw/bin/bash, relaunched X, and it would
revert back to /bin/tcsh.
