Public bug reported:
/etc/X11/Xsession places ERRFILE into users home directory which
conflicts with possible HDD power saving settings by causing occasional
writes done by logging misbehaving apps/drivers. The Xsession has
provisions for placing it into /tmp but that path is only taken if users
home directory is unwritable. This slight oversight is easily fixed by
relocating the default ERRFILE into /tmp.
