I'm aware of that. They are present:

root at sleekit:/etc # ls -l `!58`
ls -l `locate radeon_drv.so`
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  419776 Nov  6 07:50 
/usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/radeon_drv.so
root at sleekit:/etc # ls -l `!59`
ls -l `locate ati_drv.so`
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  6872 Nov  6 07:50 
/usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/ati_drv.so
root at sleekit:/etc #

Near as I can tell:

root at sleekit:/etc # /usr/libexec/locate.updatedb
 >>> WARNING

root at sleekit:/etc # locate xorg.conf
/root/xorg.conf.new
/usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d
/usr/local/man/man5/xorg.conf.5.gz
/usr/local/man/man5/xorg.conf.d.5.gz
root at sleekit:/etc #
