One way to prevent recursion is

if [[ "$FILEINCLUDED" != "1" ]];
then
   export FILEINCLUDED=1
   ...  # do real job here
fi

However, placing this either into the systemwide startxwinrc or into the 
local .startxwinrc would not do anything useful.

The right thing to do would be to append a call to 
$HOME/.startxwinrc_final (this name is freshly invented, feel free to 
change) at the end of the systemwide startxwinrc. An alternative would 
be to call $HOME/.startxwinrc_final from the same place from where the 
systemwide startxwinrc is called; namely right after it.

Anyone feeling of doing this?

Thanks!
