Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

x11-common: 1:7.4+3ubuntu10

The failsafe stuff makes the assumption that the content of this file
has not been modified and will always work.  Since it's treated as a
conffile in /etc, it's very possible that someone has overwritten this
file.

It would be better to keep this file in a static place elsewhere on the
system and never overwrite it, just refer to the file when failsafe X
mode is started.

** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
