dmenu is the only suckless software I know that does anything related to the XDG basedir spec. I think the suckless way is to implement one simple approach and let users patch in their favorite way. A thread from 2010[1] suggests that many suckless users don't favor the XDG approach. My setup has XDG_* variables, but I wouldn't expect support from suckless out of the box. I hope that helps. 1: https://lists.suckless.org/dev/1012/6624.html
