There is no Xorg standard installation directory.   Most of the Linux distros
that had been using /usr/X11R6 seem to be moving directly to /usr when they
adopt X11R7.   At Sun, we were using /usr/X11 and plan to stick with it, and
I wouldn't be surprised if other Unix versions who used /usr/X11 do so as
well.
