I started a clean (no .xsession, .xinirc etc) X server as root with
startx. I still did get a gnome session (how?). However, no XKB error
occurred. Seems to be an access rights problem. The only non-normal
output at the tty was:
X:warning; process set to priority -11 instead of requested priority -10

Further information at the tty when running as non-root:
The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports:

> Output file "/var/tmp/server-0.xkm" removed
Errors from xkbcomp are not fatal to the X server
