Oops--that's an XFree86ism. XFree86 makes /private/etc/X11 a symbolic link to /usr/X11R6/etc. Apple's X11, on the other hand, makes /private/etc/X11 a real directory, and completely leaves out /usr/X11R6/etc.
hmmm. I have XFree86 4.4.0 (from their binaries) and there's no
/usr/X11R6/etc. And /private/etc/X11 is also a real dir. It has always
been like this as far as I can remember (4.2 I think) and everything works
with clean installs between XFree86 updates.

OK--I'm looking really bad here!
That whole /usr/X11R6/etc thing must be specific to Fink's xfree86* packages--I have 4.4 through Fink.
