Yesterday, I built LXDE (on the same VM where patches 1 and 2 were enough to start X under twm), started LXDE, and guess what: no pointer. I decided to rebuild Xorg-server with the 4 patches, and it works now. So I think that, "for some cases", all four patches are needed. I'm making a consolidated patch and I'll change the book again.
