Works for me with xorg.conf in /etc/X11/xorg.conf. I configure
xorg-server with:

sed -i 's:datadir)/X:sysconfdir)/X:' config/Makefile.in
./configure --prefix=/usr --localstatedir=/var --enable-config-dbus \
  --with-fontrootdir=/usr/share/fonts --enable-builddocs --sysconfdir=/etc

Hmm, that sed looks suspicious. I don't remember why I added it and the
script's not got a comment to explain it (a bad habit I'm trying to
break). I'm guessing it moves the config from datadir to sysconfdir?
