Good point. Further testing shows that if I terminate X by using Ctrl+Alt+Backspace or if I just blank out my .xinitrc so X starts and stops immediately everything works fine. On the other hand, if I either Ctrl+C startx (or xinit) or if I send SIGINT to X then I am dropped into blackness. Does this agree with the different termination modes of gdm (that normal termination resembles the first and using the init script the second)? In any case, it has nothing to do with gdm beyond that, you were quite right.
