Bug#241361: Info received (was Bug#241361: gnome-session: recent upgrade hoses login with sawfish)

[Thomas Bushnell, BSG]

More info: 
The splash screen does not show up in the failing mode, nor does
smproxy running.  (Perhaps it is started and crashes.)

The failing mode is when I select "default session" from the gdm menu.
When I say to run a "GNOME session", then I get my old session,
apparently working fine.  So the bug may be related to the difference
between these two ways of gdm invoking the session.
