Thank you. I confirm that this works (if run as root, anyway). It installs both the /usr/X11 and the /usrX11R6 symlinks (somewhat surprisingly, given that /usr/ is supposed to untouchable now). I confirm also that installing Xquartz on 10.11 does *not* install the /usr/X11R6 symlink, only /usr/X11. From discussions on the Fink users lists I gather that this is being observed by others as well.
