There is still a problem Harold. The links I'm getting have the
correct directory names but aren't rooted i.e. 

app-defaults -> etc/X11/app-defaults
fs -> etc/X11/fs
lbxproxy -> etc/X11/lbxproxy
proxymngr -> etc/X11/proxymngr
rstart -> etc/X11/rstart
twm -> etc/X11/twm
xdm -> etc/X11/xdm
xinit -> etc/X11/xinit
xserver -> etc/X11/xserver
xsm -> etc/X11/xsm

You could link them like XftConfig and xkb are;

app-defaults -> ../../../../etc/X11/app-defaults
fs -> ../../../../etc/X11/fs
lbxproxy -> ../../../../etc/X11/lbxproxy
proxymngr -> ../../../../etc/X11/proxymngr
rstart -> ../../../../etc/X11/rstart
twm -> ../../../../etc/X11/twm
xdm -> ../../../../etc/X11/xdm
xinit -> ../../../../etc/X11/xinit
xserver -> ../../../../etc/X11/xserver
xsm -> ../../../../etc/X11/xsm
