Add an entry under the ServerFlags section of your XF86Config:
DontZap 

From the man page:
% man XF86Config
- snip -
       DontZap This  disallows  the use of the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace
               sequence.  This sequence allows you  to  terminate
               the  X  server.   Setting  DontZap allows this key
               sequence to be passed to clients.
