I don't remember the others off the top of my head, but OpenBSD certainly seems to be treating Xenocara as a core part of the OS? It's not in the main src tree, but it's maintained in-house, the x* sets are treated like any other, and even some non-graphical programs depend on the xbase set for things like font rendering.

There is some discussion of the OpenBSD approach here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24922625 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24922625
