How about changing 

	(setq pixmap (vector 'xbm ':file pixmap))

to 

	(unless (file-readable-p pixmap)
          ;; Look in `x-bitmap-file-path'.
	  (setq pixmap (vector 'xbm ':file pixmap)))

?

This would allow programmers to use :stipple in portable code, yet
allow XEmacs users to specify xpm files to customize.
