Take a close look at /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc (snipped):

   sysmodmap=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/Xmodmap
   oldsysmodmap=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/.Xmodmap

   # merge in defaults and keymaps

   if [ -f $oldsysmodmap ]; then
       xmodmap $oldsysmodmap
   fi

   if [ -f $sysmodmap ]; then
       xmodmap $sysmodmap
   fi

And since /usr/X11R6/lib/X11 is the same as /etc/X11,
you simply have to create /etc/X11/xinit/Xmodmap.
