Where does /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/compiled point?

I think the layout from "make install" is correct. The files are 
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb, compiled is a link to /etc/X11/xkb, and 
/etc/X11/xkb just contains a README file. I don't know why the binary 
distribution is different. I can't see anything in the makefiles or 
bindist scripts that be different.

I changed the packaging to reflect the "make install".
