Bug#520467: gdmgreeter not effected by libc6?

[Gordon Haverland]

Package: gdm
Version: 2.20.9-1
Severity: wishlist

An unpgrade involving libc6 just rolled through, and even though I told gdm to
restart, it didn't completely (I am running 2 xservers).  After manually killing
the greeter, things seem to be okay.

Perhaps I am being early on reporting things are well, but maybe this helps others.
