Don't forget Parrot (and tcl/tk) will run on other systems besides X.  X
defaults files are not very platform-independent.  I suspect Parrot will
have to rely on something other to allow users to override defaults.
Perhaps it will map onto an X defaults file on X/Unix systems, but will
probably map to something else on Windows and Mac.
