RELOCATE_PROJECTROOT is AC_DEFINED in configure.ac, but currently has no effect as it doesn't appear in any AC_CONFIG_HEADER header. When packaged for Windows, we do not have a unix-style filesystem tree, where file needed by the X server can be found in fixed, absolute paths under the prefix (PROJECTROOT). Instead, the filesystem tree containing files needed by the X server and clients will be installed with the directory containing the X server executable as the root directory of that tree. (Typically, this will be in the Program Files directory, which does not have a fixed name, as it can be moved, localized, or added to to indicate x86 or x64 binaries) So, RELOCATE_PROJECTROOT is used to make a native Windows build of the X server look for various files (fonts, xkb data) in locations relative to the X server rather than at absolute paths, by translating those paths at run-time. Additionally the XKEYSYMDB, XERRORDB, XLOCALEDIR env vars checked by libX11 are set appropriately for clients started by the X server.

X Server
The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows,
which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program
can draw into.
Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server
(or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager,
which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons
and draggable titlebars and borders.
