I tried to reproduce this, but it works for me on a pre-Intrepid system.  I'm 
going to mark this fix-released, rather than invalid, on the assumption that 
there was something going on.  If anyone can reproduce this, or knows exactly 
what the submitter meant by
"only the first gnome-terminal honors the display setting"
 they should re-open this bug.

 It sounds like Heikki is saying that one of the gnome-terminals opens
outside Xephyr, even though DISPLAY=:1.  That sounds very unlikely,
unless gnome-terminal talks to an already-running gnome-terminal that it
found with something other than X, and asked it to open a new window.

 I tested on a dual-core system with hot caches, and gnome-terminal running 
outside Xephyr, so there was plenty of chance for any race conditions to 
happen.  Both gnome-terminals appear at opposite corners of the Xephyr window.  
The combined stdout/stderr of it all is:
Could not init font path element /usr/share/fonts/X11/cyrillic, removing from 
list!
unrecognised device identifier!
(EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed
