    Without xlogo running the server would reset after the xhost command and
    thus forget all resources that have been loaded before with xrdb.

Both xdm and xinit keep a connection to the server open for the duration
of your session, so that such kludgery on your part is not required.  If
you aren't using one of these, or something equivalent that also keeps a
connection open, well, perhaps you should.
