first of all, .Xmodmap is often found in your home directory. if you do
wish to make it site-wide (and don't care about having to do this every
time you reinstall or upgrade X), simply add:

xmodmap /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/.Xmodmap

although i'd probably not make it a dotfile. ::)

a reinstall will clobber your /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc, but not
your Xmodmaprc.

check out xinit(1)... there's no reference to xmodmap in it.

your xmodmap syntax is correct though.
