Alright, at least X works. I think the pointer only appears when the
first client comes up.

Don't bother, I think I know what fails. Try to remove those lines
from your config:
| Section "Files"
|         FontPath        "unix/:7100"                    # local font server
|         FontPath        "unix/:7101"                    # local font server
| EndSection

IIRC, the xfs-related bug upstream is that one:
