One of the most common "older apps" that needs to be recompiled is rxvt.
This seems to be a packaging issue: what is the best way for setup to (help)
ensure that people upgrading to the new Xfree86 version get a re-compiled
rxvt as well?

Of course, in principle, rxvt is no different from other X programs that are
not updated when Xfree86 is updated, but I think it is very widely used,
and hence likely to trip almost everyone up when it stops working after they
update the X packages.
