I think there is no xorg.conf option to enable GL_SYNC_TO_VBLANK. But if 
you don't want to use the environment variable, you may use 
nvidia-settings to adjust the gl_sync behaviour.

Recent versions of nvidia-setting show two additional XVideo options: 
"Video Texture Adaptor: Sync to VBlanc" and "Video Blitter Adaptor: Sync 
to VBlanc". I think the first one is for the "normal" xvideo mode. Do you 
know what the second otion is for?
