Strange that this happens after an upgrade. What initalization
mechanism do you use for your X session? Do you use the "chained"
approach, i. e., ~/.xsession containing
#!/bin/csh
source ~/.cshrc
exec ~/.xinitrc
and all your session startup stuff in ~/xinitrc? (I'm using this
approach for many years with XDM successfully.)

In this case, ~/.xinitrc will be processed. XDM does use ~/.xsession
instead (same content can be used). This seems to indicate that
the upgrade did not affect the programs called.
