/etc/X11/Xserver is used by /usr/X11R6/bin/X (which is a wrapper program
and not the real X server binary) to determine which X server binary to
use.  The wrapper X program is in place to take care of security issues.
The explanation of this used to bin in /usr/doc/xbase/xbase-readme but
I don't know were it moved to with the 'Great X Reorganization'.
