Oops, I gave a symlink.  /etc/X11/fs/config is the real file, and the other
is symlinked at fs: 

$ls /usr/X11R6/lib/X11 -l |grep fs
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           22 May 19 11:24 fs -> ../../../../etc/X11/fs

At any rate, you can usually tell where any file came from with: 
'rpm -q --whatprovides /my/file' but it's funny that 
'rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fs/config' reports XFree86-xfs-4.2.0-8
but rpm -ql XFree86-xfs-4.2.0-8 reports /etc/X11/fs/config
