quoting §12.8.7:
The `/usr/X11R6/' directory hierarchy should be regarded as
deprecated for all packages except the X Window System itself, and
those which use the `imake' program it provides, in which case the
packages may transition out of the `/usr/X11R6/' directory at the
maintainer's discretion.[1]
i beleive that is pretty clear: since bugsx uses imake, you may leave it
as is. if you want to put it into /usr, you may also do that. it is up
to you.
all the footnote says is that imake Does The Right Thing, which is why
it is exempted.
