REFERENCE: This is to separate [https://bugs.gentoo.org/670212#c3] into its own Bug. In Gentoo, probably since beginning of x11-base/xorg-server-1.20, information in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/*.conf files do not get evaluated any more. Copying their content into /etc/X11/xorg.conf, everything works fine again. :: no systemd :: Following "Non root Xorg" in [https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Non_root_Xorg] :: start via "startx -- vt1" Excavating [ https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1295891 ] even pointing back to [ https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1000719 ]
Hi. Would you kindly share your xorg.conf.d files as well as information if you do have xorg.conf at the same time? Xorg.0.log also could be helpful. USE flags of xorg-server too. Here I can confirm that xorg.conf.d is working for me on x11-base/xorg-server-1.20.4 with "glamor ipv6 suid xorg -debug -dmx -doc -kdrive -libressl -minimal (-selinux) -static-libs -systemd -udev -unwind -wayland -xcsecurity -xephyr -xnest -xvfb"

I am sorry to hear that you face such problems. Here I've tried it on all of my systems, and I also did a fresh gentoo installation (amd64 stage3 bumped to ~amd64) and I am still not able to reproduce your issues. Both while running Xorg as root and as well as regular user (with USE=elogind). The only thing that looks somewhat odd on your end is that your conf.d files lack 'others' file modes. Have you tried to `chmod 644 /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/*.conf` them? Also, maybe there's something off with permissions in between somewhere, can you run `namei -mo /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/*`?

Shifting long-long-running Xorg to running *non*-root ...
