Please, carefully read 'man xorg.conf' on how xorg.conf.d works. I assume you will want to have xwayland.conf.d replacing xorg.conf.d, just like you suggest xwayland.conf replaces xorg.conf. It is starting to sound like we should just always pass -configdir and -config as arguments to X, and have the directory passed with -configdir set in weston's ./configure, instead of changing xorg-server.
