10-fontdir.sh only adds font paths (doesn't remove them).. so that isn't it.
This sort of thing just might be a source of trouble. Other bits of setup, such as loading .Xresources, may also cause trouble when you start X clients this way. So the advice should be to not have a .xinitrc at all, but instead do
mkdir ~/.xinitrc.d echo '/sw/bin/rxvt -tcw &' > ~/.xinitrc.d/rxvt.sh chmod +x ~/.xinitrc.d/rxvt.sh
and restart X11.
Yep.
