After some time, I have the feeling that it is an incompatibility with my X server, maybe some fonts stuff (my emacs does only display white blocks as chars, then there is Bug #58232 ...).
I'm currently comparing my configuration with a freshly installed edgy (where everything works), but this might still take some days.
