I should have looked closer to the diff of the XWin.log files.
Both of them seem to indicate that /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 isn't
evaluated with 4.3.0-50. The file contains:

    Option "XkbModel"	"pc105"
    Option "XkbLayout"	"de"

Explicitly running 

$ XWin -rootless -clipboard -xf86config /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 

doesn't change anything.

Any hints?
