They don't have to. You can edit them to your needs.
In this first release I wanted to keep it as simple as possible -- in
particular the error checking. If you, for example, want to specify
modulesets_dir relative modules files and don't have nonetwork=True,
there's always the attempt to download the modules file from gnome.org.
Later there can be online managed modules files.
For example, the default module could always be 
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/util/modular/blob/xorg.modules
