I added the suffix .bak to its filename and removed the execution flags.
But a question comes to my mind: if the fink xinitrc package (which was installed as a dependency) is configured in such a way that it looks for scripts in a directory, why does the xinitrc file it provides contain code to duplicate what a separate script does? I find it confusing and, whenever possible, the FAQ should be updated. I found no mention whatsoever to this new way of configuring X11 launching in the official documentation (Running X11 - 4. Starting X11). On the other hand, I must confess I really like the new way :) It allows for modularity and flexibility. I have completely removed my ~/.xinitrc now, since fink is doing a magnificent job bringing me X11 as I want it. Keep up the good work!!
