I see some light in the tunnel: As written later in the thread
~/.Xauthority doesn't have auth cookies for DISPLAY=:1000, but I
digged a bit and found that these are in ~/.nx/C-*-1000-*/authority

Setting XAUTHORITY to the above value, I can finally manually fire up
an xterm into the blank session.

env XAUTHORITY=$HOME/.nx/C-*-1000-*/authority DISPLAY=:1000 xterm

So the basic bits seem to be all there. But why can't any session
properly start up? Perhaps XAUTHORITY/DISPLAY aren't properly passed
to the scripts?
