This file looks like you copied its contents from (gnu services xorg)
some time ago.  I think the problem is that this code is already old
enough to conflict with the current guix code.

Such copying of some part of the guix code and using it in a system
config instead of the current guix code is not a right approach IMO.  If
you think there is something that can't be configured by a user, please
report.  But is using #:extra-config for 'xorg-configuration-file'
procedure not enough for you needs?
