The post-install script for XQuartz should have setup the symlink.  If it didn't, I'd be curious to learn why, but the user can just set it up themselves by running this:

Here is what I found in /var/log/install.log:

Oct 3 14:20:15 mcostabel installd[333]: ./postinstall: ln: /usr/X11R6: Operation not permitted

Whether the stubs were present before the install is hard to tell postmortem.
