/etc/X11/xdm/Xservers file zapped by upgrade

[Arrigo Triulzi <a.triulzi@ic.ac.uk>]

Hello all,

	upgrading xbase seems to zap /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers without
giving a chance to save it in the usual way. I change the contents of
it to add "-terminate -bpp 16 -dpi 100" to the X server startup line
and I have been burnt by upgrading my multiple machines as they all
"forgot" the 16 bpp mode and started living in 8 bpp again. This was a
bit of a pain as I had to change 50ish machines and restart xdm on all
of them to the user's great delight...

	Could this be changed in xbase or should I set the arguments
elsewhere as per "the Debian way"?

	Thanks,

	Arrigo
