Debian has it in that location. They have patched XFree86 for this. See:

ftp://ftp.debian.org/pub/debian/stable/source/x11/xfree86_3.2-1.diff.gz

The idea is to have all X-related configuration files in one directory
under /etc. Don=B4t know why they didn=B4t use symbolic links as they did f=
or
other files such as /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/xdm-config.
