Here's the log obtained from "startx 2>&1 | tee startx.log".  It doesn't
shed any more light, however.

On the good side, I can generate a working X session by
regenerating /etc/X11/xorg.conf anew with dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg.
New config attached, I'm not sure what the substantial changes are from
what I had before. At least I can continue working this way.

On the bad side though, this session crashes (freezes hard) when logging
out, closing the sesssion.  I think this bug has been reported
elsewhere.

But on the good side again, virtual consoles (Ctrl-Alt-F1 etc) are back.
