Actually, no, I really do want seahorse to start after gpg-agent and
ssh-agent.  I forgot that while the scripts in Xsession.d run from
lowest to highest, the ones like gpg-agent and ssh-agent prefix
themselves to $STARTUP and thus run from highest to lowest; thus,
seahorse-agent really does start after gpg-agent and ssh-agent.

That leaves the other half of this bug: I want seahorse-agent to not
start at all if it can see from the environment that the session
already has gpg-agent and ssh-agent running.
