Sorry I wrong. I ran those commands in a ssh terminal which was logged
into a machine that has been upgraded since gutsy. I checked again on my
cleanly installed jaunty box and there I don't have the file anywhere in
/usr and not under /etc either, despite having x11-common and gcolor2
installed. If I open gcolor2 the colors and indeed missing on this
machine just as you suggested.
I also grepped the upstream xserver git tree and found this:
