>Description:
/usr/ports/x11/xdm Makefile (rev 1.4) uses EXAMPLESDIR as the xdm config file directory, preventing xdm from reading real config files:

CONFIGURE_ARGS+=        --with-xdmconfigdir=${EXAMPLESDIR} \
                        --with-xdmscriptdir=${EXAMPLESDIR}

should be

CONFIGURE_ARGS+=        --with-xdmconfigdir=${PREFIX}/lib/X11/xdm \
                        --with-xdmscriptdir=${EXAMPLESDIR}

but there are changes needed to pkg-plist and probably other files.
>How-To-Repeat:
Change an xdm config file in /usr/local/lib/X11/xdm.  Run xdm.  Notice how changes are ignored.  Changes to example xdm files (/usr/local/share/examples/xdm) will be read.
