Here's a list of all packages in FC5 which own that directory:

xscreensaver-base
xorg-x11-resutils
xorg-x11-server-utils
xorg-x11-utils
xorg-x11-xsm
xorg-x11-apps
xorg-x11-xdm

Mike, if you think these are buggy, I'll happily file bugs against them. 
Honestly, I think it's reasonable to see that list and conclude that it's
expected behavior for a package that adds an app-defaults file to own
/usr/share/X11/app-defaults.

Jochen, do you think it would be reasonable to back out of this mess by just
adding a dependency on xterm?  That's what the app-defaults file is for, isn't
it?  In FC6, the xterm dependency will pull in libXt which will own this
directory; in FC5 the directory will still be unowned in the dependency tree but
at least that's not a bug in this package.
