I think it is a resource string in winex11.drv.
Concerning this topic, there are some apps that try to load the nvidia/ati specific driver files, and have vendor specific strings. City of Heroes tried to find nvogl.dll(or similar, don't remember exactly). I don't know what it tried to do with it, but this could potentially be a bigger problem than just a string in dxdiag.
