Stan said his Cube has these packages installed:

# dpkg --list | grep Xorg
ii  xserver-xorg-core                      2:1.20.11-1
      powerpc      Xorg X server - core server
ii  xserver-xorg-legacy                    2:1.20.11-1
      powerpc      setuid root Xorg server wrapper

I gather that Riccardo also runs Debian SID.

Perhaps there is some interaction between d3ccc9781560, CONFIG_USER_NS and 
the SUID wrapper...

Does your Xorg installation use --enable-suid-wrapper, Andreas?
