More importantly, note that you should not be using the 1.2.x debian patch
with 1.3.x or 1.4.x.

Yes files have moved around. These moves were due to decisions by the
devel team to make it more clear how files are used based on their
location. There are many other differences between the 1.2.x stream and
the 1.3.x/1.4.0 RC packages, including changes in conf.pl.

If you are testing 1.4.0 RC1, please do NOT use backlevel patches, as they
most likely will not be compatible.

Debian provided major modifications to some of the config files to suit
their packaging preferences. Their version of conf.pl is not up to date
with the version in 1.4.0 RC1 or 1.3.x.

I believe XSS patches were applied throughout the SquirrelMail source, so
the hole the patch was targetted to fix should already be addressed.
