/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc reads the wrong global Xmodmap file. it reads
/etc/X11/.Xmodmap, but google says it should read /etc/X11/Xmodmap
I am assuming this applies to Xresources too.
bug #79998 may be related to this
the header of my xinitrc reads:
# $Xorg: xinitrc.cpp,v 1.3 2000/08/17 19:54:30 cpqbld Exp $
does this indicate that this bug should go upstream to Xorg? or is xinit a
distro-specific thing?
here's a short patch:

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. add some stuff to /etc/X11/Xmodmap
2. startx or xinit
3. watch your changes not work
Actual Results:
xmodmap commands are not performed
Expected Results:
xmodmap commands should be performed, but are not b/c xinitrc reads the wrong
file.
