Description 
/usr/X11/bin/xorgcfg exits on startup with an error message of:
Can't create rules structure.

truss shows it's looking for the XKB rules file in /usr/X11/share/X11/xkb, while
Solaris has installed it in /usr/X11/lib/X11/xkb.
*** Test Case ***
Run /usr/X11/bin/xorgcfg and verify it can start up and does not exit with an
error of "Can't create rules structure"
Work Around 
As root run:
 ln -s ../lib/X11 /usr/X11/share
