Unfortunately, there isn't any error in any logfile.

This looks indeed like a Gnome bug: A friend of mine who's running
GenToo Linux has the same problems after updating to 2.12.2.

setxkbmap also fails - I've tried to ktrace setxkbmap, I myself can't
find  the problem - the only thing which looks suspicous is at the end:

  1442 setxkbmap RET   write 92/0x5c
  1442 setxkbmap CALL  read(0x3,0x7fffffffe850,0x20)
  1442 setxkbmap RET   read -1 errno 35 Resource temporarily unavailable
