Xlib doesn't use this value (it computes it from the reply length instead) which is why nobody has noticed yet. But the spec http://www.x.org/releases/X11R7.7/doc/kbproto/xkbproto.html says that it should be set.

The X server uses this directory to store the compiled version of the current keymap and/or any scratch keymaps used by clients. The X server or some other tool might destroy or replace the files in this directory, so it is not a safe place to store compiled keymaps for long periods of time. The default keymap for any server is usually stored in: X<num>-default.xkm where <num> is the display number of the server in question, which makes it possible for several servers *on the same host* to share the same directory. Unless the X server is modified, sharing this directory between servers on different hosts could cause problems.
