The above error you posted, clearly shows that this is an error in your
configuration file, and not an XFree86 bug.

Bugzilla is strictly for reporting bugs, and is not a technical support
forum.  If you require technical support or help properly configuring X,
please join one of our mailing lists and ask someone for help.
