Has this ever worked? I don't recall it ever working. If the
argument given to -name has valid resources they will be used, but
I've never gotten a resourceless XEmacs this way, I've had to use
`xrdb < /dev/null'.
I don't know if it ever worked. The funny thing is that I don't even
know if it's *supposed* to work. It doesn't work in FSFmacs, for
instance. It works for xterm, though. `xterm -name foo' effectively
makes xterm ignore all of my resources.
If we do agree that this is a bug in need of fixing, maybe someone can
produce a patch. It looks easy to fix, but I know next to nothing
about X so I wouldn't want to break anything.
