I've changed things a bit so that configuration of xdm installs now in 
subdirectory 'default' and copies files to real location if they don't exist 
already (similar to kdm). As for the file SecurityPolicy: each of ports that 
installed it, now installs SecurityPolicy.default-<foo> where foo is Server, 
NestServer and VFBServer according to the port and copy it to SecurityPolicy 
if that doesn't exist. They don't remove SecurityPolicy upon deinstall as it 
could be needed by one of the other port.
I hope this helps with upgrading ports and/or with X.org ports. It should at 
least solve ports/56487 as far as I understand.
