Actually, I had /etc/X11/Xwrapper.config _with_ 'allowed_users=console'.
Running dpkg-reconfigure did not change a thing in the file! All, I
know is that right afterwards it worked...

I ran a dist-upgrade on May 2nd/3rd that seems to have resulted in the
breakage. I think I was running unstable before that, just hadn't
upgraded for a couple of weeks.
Here are the relevant lines from /var/log/dpkg.log{,.1}:
2007-04-01 02:12:18 upgrade x11-common 1:7.1.0-12 1:7.1.0-15
2007-04-01 02:12:22 upgrade xserver-xorg-core 2:1.1.1-18 2:1.1.1-20

Well, I most definitely was running at least etch before the upgrade.
Of course, at that point there probably wasn't much different between
the two...
Let me know if there's anything else I can do.
