They are sourced (not executed) from xinitrc, which is a bash script:
if [ -d "${HOME}/.xinitrc.d" ] ; then
for f in "${HOME}"/.xinitrc.d/*.sh ; do
[ -x "$f" ] && . "$f"
done
unset f
fi
If you want to inherit your tcsh environment, then unfortunately, I think the
only way would be creating ~/.xinitrc as:
#!/bin/tcsh
exec /opt/X11/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc
or whatever the tcsh syntax is.
