Hmm. I'm surprised that dtpad is linked with Kerberos with your Linux
distro. Keyutils (access to kernel keyrings), libresolv (DNS resolver), and
libtirpc (RPC - remote procedure call) as well. I wonder what the distro is
trying to do with these network libraries. It doesn't appear to be anything
web related. Probably extra baggage due to dependencies in some other
library. libbsd maybe?

Aren't those related to the RPC protocol - we explicitly have to enabled
rpcbind and I think some services like cmsd and ttdbserver run over
Sun RPC. We won't see those in FreeBSD as a dependency because the XDR/RPC
stack is part of libc.

Looking through the CDE git repo, nothing jumps out at me to suggest a
smoking gun.

Let me fantasize here a bit, since we have no clue what is going on.

I think should be possible to trace X11 the events going back and forth 
(something
like "xev" is doing). I forgot how to do this but I am pretty sure
this can be done.

Maybe some another freedesktop "improvement" causes some changes about
how and which events are reported, for example CDE thinks it receives
a keystroke on a selection and erases the text. Just a wild guess.
