DU 4.0: dxsession doesn't read .Xdefaults

I've got a 255/233 running DU 4.0, set up to run xdm instead of cde.
Changing dxsession configuration with the menus does write the user's
.Xdefaults file, and will change behavior during the current session,
but at the next login the changes appear to be lost. What seems to
actually be happening is that dxsession is not reading the .Xdefaults
file.

On other DU 4.0 hosts it works fine.

Has anyone seen this behavior?
