No. /usr/X11R6/etc is where config of things like gnome lives.
I doesn't have any initial idea about touching this.

X11 (Xorg/Xfree86) config used to live under /usr/X11R6/lib/X11 (LIBDIR).

I'm talking only about take xinit/startx and xdm config from under  
${LIBDIR} to under /etc/X11.
This is a common use on most unix, even on NetBSD Current.
