This has never been a part of our releases, I've never even heard of
the file, so I think it must have been provided by the person who was
making the slackware package.

This file shouldn't be there.. where does it come from?  The .session
files distributed in the openbox tarball should preferably be used.

It doesn't need to be executable, it is not "executed" like that.  You
can see how it is run in openbox-session.

Maybe you could get ahold of the person who has been packaging Openbox
for slackware for a while, you can find him through the bugzilla:
