Aren't there three cases?

 - arch is using X11R7 on the to-be-installed version and (old) installed
   system is already using X11R7 (easy)
 - same as above, but both systems with X11R6 (easy as well)
 - arch is using X11R7 on the to-be-installed version, but we need to
   upgrade from a previous X11R6 version (basically impossible without
   user interaction, AFAICT - I would go for an empty Xorg install and
   warn the user that all modifications of the old config file, including
   keyboard settings, font pathes etc., have to be merged manually)
