The thing that returns ENOMEM in fork.c when this failure occurs is:
dup_mm
I still have to see why.
To try distinguishing between the ENOMEM returns, I tried adding
a flag to the return value (eg:
retval = -(ENOMEM | 0x8000)
retval = -(ENOMEM | 0x4000)
retval = -(ENOMEM | 0x2000)
etc

One more clue:
in kern.log, when xserver is running under hypervisor, this appears:

I've gotten the source for the kernel I'm using, and put a bunch
of debug statements in the kernel/fork.c:do_fork ro
Package: xorg-server
Version: 1.7.7
Severity: minor
What I did:
apt-get source xorg-server=1.7.7
cd xorg-server-1.7.7
fakeroot debian/rules patch
sed -i 's/--disable-debug/--enable-debug/' debian/rules
fakeroot debian/rules build
Results:

Installing libudev-dev, as well as x11proto-gl-dev was no problem.
Then it wanted me to install x11proto-xf86dri-dev, which I did,
but the subsequent build attempt gave this error:

I had to install libtool:
sudo apt-get install libtool libtool-doc
Found the solution in ubuntu forums, now it's in debian bug tracker
too : - )
On
Cannot build: I probably did something wrong, but what?
did apt-get build-dep xserver-xorg
then tried fakeroot debian/rules binary and had to install
quilt and xutils-dev separately because they didn't get
installed with build-dep, then this:
