Hi,

Thanks for your report.

Stricly speaking, the application resources are searched following the
XFILESEARCHPATH variable described in the X(7) manual page.

Some commonly established usage is to let systems install the default
value in /usr, and let system administrator put locally modified
versions in /etc, and eventually have users put their own version in
${HOME}.

So I would rather use the patch below, that also replaces another
occurence of /etc/X11.
