Wrong location, that's for xdm.  You'd want 
/usr/local/share/config/kdm/Xsession.

For that matter, you could just run kcontrol, and under Session Manager's 
settings, just add `xfce' to the list of window managers (forget which tab), 
and you can start xfce without editting Xsession or ~/.xsession.  The default 
Xsession has a fallthrough default in the absense of ~/.xsession, and 
searches for binaries to start the wm, including ${wm}-session (for wm=gnome, 
for example), and start${wm}, for wm=kde or wm=xfce (startkde, or startxfce).
