Ah, yes. This can take your sanity. Check the last lines of
xdm-config:

! SECURITY: do not listen for XDMCP or Chooser requests
! Comment out this line if you want to manage X terminals with xdm
DisplayManager.requestPort:    0

This line forbids xdm to manage remote displays. When you start up
xdm in your configuration, it recognizes that indeed nothing is
left to do and terminates. There is no error condition.
