The above shows that TEXINPUTS.xetex is not defined and the
default TEXINPUTS is used.
However, tex/generic/babel/hyphen.cfg should be found first
compared with tex/cslatex/hyphen.cfg, even in the above setting.

I suspect that xetex is based on the other Kpathsearch, because
the banner says Web2C 7.5.2:

This is XeTeX, Version 3.14159-2.1-0.871 (Web2C 7.5.2) (INITEX)
