Does it really contain _itself_? I think this would be wrong. Instead,
it should point to /usr, i.e. the directory containing the sym link.
Reading the subject of your mail, I guess that's the case for you, too.
But above you said otherwise ("pointing to itself")...

It's due to the fact that X11 is distro-managed and as such there's
little reason to keep it in an extra location.
