I think I solved the mystery, the call command seems to come from a series of
commands known as "exksh", a comment in fsym.c reads "This function is
currently only used to locate a widget class record, as requested by a
DtLoadWidget request. In the future, if the exksh commands are ever added back
in, then it will also need to be able to locate any arbitrary symbol." So the
command was in a file called docall.c that was never built since the beginning
of the open source version, and eventually removed. It can be found here:
https://sourceforge.net/p/cdesktopenv/code/ci/2.2.4/tree/cde/programs/dtksh/docall.c
I guess the question now is how to proceed from here, remove the broken tests,
readd the unused code, or just keep things as they are?
Thank you for your time,
