Hello misc@

Something I noticed recently regarding xterm(1) which has me a bit
puzzled is the embedded path of luit(1).

When I placed the following line in my $HOME/.Xdefaults file, xterm
tried to run /usr/bin/luit and failed with execv(3).

XTerm*locale:true

It would appear that the location of luit is /usr/X11R6/bin/luit

Upon looking at xenocara/app/xterm source code I did find these
interesting lines:

main.h:#define PROJECTROOT              "/usr"

main.h:#define DEFLOCALEFILTER          DEFLOCALEFILTER1(PROJECTROOT) 
"/bin/luit"

Thoughts?
