What is the process to hand in a patch for the basic core scripts?

The tcz would have to be listed in the onboot.lst.
It would install the /home/tc/.X.d/startup.sh.
The startup.sh would run when X is started.

Using the second initrd worked for me! Thanks for the helpful comments.
Now I'll think twice about suggesting to contribute patches. (No irony intended, it's a coincidence.)

Patches are welcome if they solve a problem that cannot be solved using existing methods, and do not go against core's design philosophy.
Don't be afraid to make suggestions you think worthwhile, just be prepared to present your case.
We all had to defend our suggestions before they were adopted.
