Just a quick update: after looking at .xsession-errors, it turned out that one of my shared libraries (libglu.so.1.2) wasn't readable to the new user. I changed the owner of that library to xgrp and allowed every member of the group reading and executing priviledge, and now everything's all hunky-doree.
