The fontconfig files don't belong in /etc/X11 as they are not related to 
X; I'm slowly convincing various people to use fontconfig in place of 
other application-specific font configuration mechanisms, even for systems 
which are used on machines without X installed.

Perhaps we should add another layer of variables so that EtcX11Directory
is derived from EtcDirectory which can point at /etc and be shared by the 
fontconfig Imakefile.
