I've finally found the solution:

# apt-get install xkbset
$ xkbset -a

I wonder why xkbset hasn't been installed by default (I thought
that x11-xkb-utils were sufficient for XKB settings).

Thanks. That's useful. But I found an even better solution:

apt-cache search xdm
(install one of the alternatives)
apt-get purge gdm3


This has the extra bonus that XAUTHORITY is back where you expect it to
be, and the X server command line is configurable again.
