Please note: the double free part of the patch has been applied upstream. 
Please apply to Ubuntu Hardy GDM.

Thanks.  I committed the patch to the 2.20 branch with a minor change.  I 
removed the g_assert's from the calls to g_shell_parse_argv.  I worry that 
asserting could cause the daemon to exit which would cause problems for 
any running displays, I'd think.  I would accept any further patches to 
improve the error handling, but I suspect just asserting isn't the best 
answer here.  Otherwise the patch looks correct.  The double-free problem 
is a pretty obvious bug..
