Bug#849342: [xrdp] xrdp-sesman: Fails to start Xorg

I think it is a bug in Xorg that it looks for files in the default
config dir even though a non-default config file is passed on the
command-line. xrdp could certainly work around that by providing its
own, empty config directory, but this feels somewhat wrong.
