You are right, sorry, it seems to be /usr/X11R6/bin/X which is causing the problem, so it would be xserver-common, although just downgrading that and xserver-xfree86 (due to dependencies) doesn't solve the problem.

Running startx (standard xsession) I see on the screen: Using authority file /home/micha/.Xauthority Writing authority file /home/micha/.Xauthority and then it hangs for about 30 seconds, no output to /var/log/XFree86.0.log yet or .xsession-errors. Running ps shows the following related processes running: /bin/sh /usr/bin/X11/startx xinit /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc -- /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/xserverrc /usr/bin/X11/X -dpi 100 -nolisten tcp startx and xinit respond gracefully to kill (they just exit without problem). X doesn't respond and it requires kill -9 to kill it. If I kill just startx and xinit and leave X running and then plug in the network cable X comes up immediately. If I run startx and press Ctrl-C nothing happens, if I plug in the cable at this point I see a black screen (X initializing the screen) and then it immediately exits with the message that it was stopped (as expected except for the hang). Waiting out the 30 seconds or so for the network timeout gives the same result. Running startx -- :1 when another session of X is already running will not hang BTW. I also tried running tcpdump when X starts and it gives the following output, showing the name lookup request (my machine is litshi, rice is the name server/gateway) 20:25:55.791908 IP litshi.luna.local.32784 > rice.luna.local.domain: 6405+ A? -.luna.local.
