Ah, now you tell me : ) It sounded like bisection was what you did if you
weren't a regular dev and you wanted your bug to get attention. I've
spent a while trying to bisect this but didn't get all the way. My tests
make me believe it lies somewhere between commits
f5fbb15f66bd0a6017e4ca513217e823395502b7 and
6a305693b777ecd710107387a9753117a54bcbf9 ...

The problem doesn't manifest directly after Xorg is started after boot -
it seems to happen a few seconds later while services are still being
started. Switching to a VT and back can make the problem go away.
