It turns out all along that it must be a race condition.

I.e., some parts of nodm have not fully handed the terminal over to the
user as fast as seems. This never happened with xdm.

$ cat .xsession
j=zh_TW.UTF-8; export LANG=$j LC_CTYPE=$j
s=sleep\ 5 j=C; export LC_COLLATE=$j LC_MESSAGES=$j
export XMODIFIERS=@im=SCIM GTK_IM_MODULE=xim; scim -d
export XAUTHORITY=~/.Xauthority #for emacs as root, grass
j=~/.bash_profile; test -f $j && . $j
( sleep 11 && #bug 584502: nodm race condition.
#if no delay, then on some machines won't be effective!
xmodmap - <<\EOF
