Apparently .xsession-errors (while still used widely) has been deprecated for

Ahah!,

   For openSUSE it is started in: /usr/etc/X11/xdm/Xsession

#
# Redirect errors to the standard user log files.
#
for errfile in  "${HOME}/.xsession-errors" \
                 "${TMPDIR:-/tmp}/xerr-${USER}-${DISPLAY}"
do
     ...

   So if however you start your desktop invokes /usr/etc/X11/xdm/Xsession, the 
redirect of errors to ${HOME}/.xsession-errors occurs.
