Problem solved. I had stale libXmu in /usr/X11R6/lib, not owned by any package. 
After removing it (and other stale libs there) I got a running Xterm with this messaege (even in LC_ALL=C):

Warning: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C
Warning: X locale modifiers not supported, using default
Failed to open input method

Which was fixed by forced dpkg --remove and apt-get install libx11-6.
