The way the symlink voodoo was done before via Xconfigurator, I'd
agree, as it was IMHO quite a nasty mess.  It doesn't need to be
such a disaster though, at least in theory.  ;oP

I'd prefer for there to never ever be more than one X server to ever
want to install, thus making /usr/bin/X a hardlink to /usr/bin/Xlinux,
but that has some drawbacks too. ;)
