xserver-xorg's configuration script was a maintenance nightmare, and its detection mechanisms were worse than those now built into X itself. The config fragment X outputs to the log when it autoconfigures is what it uses, so I have no idea why you think it's useless. /usr/share/doc/xserver-xorg/examples/xorg.conf also has an example config, fwiw.
