well the intent is not to run with any xorg.conf at all because that
allows you to switch components (keyboards, mouse, monitor, videocard)
without any need to reconfigure.

but if you want one, it should go where it always has gone... /etc/X11

The argument is 'DontZap "false"'

Section "ServerFlags"
        Option          "AllowEmptyInput" "off"
        Option          "AutoAddDevices" "true"
        Option          "DontZap" "false"
EndSection
