Well, that made me curious so I did a couple of tests. It's not a hard or symbolic link, and switching languages doesn't seem it update /etc/palm/text-edit-autoreplace either.
If that file and the other one are different, it uses /etc/palm/autoreplace/en_us/text-edit-autoreplace, which is in line with what everyone was saying. So it looks like /etc/palm/text-edit-autoreplace is simply unused.
On another note, performance with a file that has a max word length of 5 seems to be much better. The file is about 1.5 MB instead of 9 MB which I'm sure helps a lot. I've uploaded this to
