The problem appeared between April, 29 and April 30. (I started with a
kernel from 04/23 and upgraded the sources with 1day increment until
the problem appears)
$ cvs diff -D"29 April 1998" -D"30 April 1998" 2>/dev/null |grep ^RCS

Note also that the problem is related to xdm rather than the Xserver,
because startx works.
