After building CDE, and starting dtlogin for the first time, I had a
deja-vu of the bad kind...  The fonts as is are true ugly, because they
are non-antialiased.  But since CDE builds on top of OpenMotif, which
has had antialiased fonts (and UTF8) support for quite some time, I
changed the Dtlogin resource files in /usr/dt/app-defaults/*/Dtlogin and
added the following lines right before the font definitions:

Dtlogin*fontlist: variable
*renderTable: variable
*renderTable.variable.fontName: Helvetica
*renderTable.variable.fontSize: 18
*renderTable.variable.fontType: FONT_IS_XFT

It looks much nicer this way.  Maybe using XFT fonts should be made the
default for all of CDE?

My next problem is, that Xsession does not run, briefly displays some
text on a blue background, then the screen goes black and displays the
sandwatch cursor (Debian Linux 64 bit).
