I've set the ctrl+alt+backspace restart option[1] in my /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf for ages. Upon updating to lxdm 0.5.3-1, hitting this key combo simply stops X rather than restarting it. I am presented with a tty until I manually restart the lxdm service. Downgrading to 0.5.2-2 fixes the problem, i.e. ctrl+alt+backspace behaves as expected. I don't see EE or WW lines in Xorg.log but am glad to provide any debugging info.
