Sorry for the late reply.  Been busy the last week.  Anyway, this _is_
correct.  <prefix>/share/icons in not correct for your particular
example.  These aren't application icon files, but cursor bitmaps.

The goal for the R7 instructions were to mimic the R6 directory
structure as closely as possible without adding 300 pages into the book.
 Although it may supposed to be $XORG_PREFIX/lib/X11.

You can, of course, make changes how you like, just be sure to account
for them later in the instructions.  I'll have to dig into some notes to
remember exactly why lib was chosen over lib/X11 (as should be done in
your particular example). I think the individual package maintainers
aren't all on the same page just yet.  Looking furthur, you may need to
pass <prefix>/lib/X11 to datadir only for xbitmaps.  I'll look into it
later today.  FYI

/opt/X11/lib/icons/    /opt/X11/lib/terminfo/   /opt/X11/lib/xserver/
