Hi, Sergio and (cc'ed) Debian X maintainers.

That is right. Since I use 'icewmbg' only to set a solid color as
background, I have put a dirty alternative personal 'icewmbg' at 
/usr/local/bin,

# --- 8< --- /usr/local/bin/icewmbg ---------
#!/bin/sh

ICEWM_PREFERENCES=${HOME}/.icewm/preferences
echo "Warning: Running alternative /usr/local/bin/icewmbg"

if [ -r "$ICEWM_PREFERENCES" ]; then
    COLOR=$(grep ^DesktopBackgroundColor= $ICEWM_PREFERENCES)
    COLOR=${COLOR#DesktopBackgroundColor=}
    COLOR=$(eval echo $COLOR)
fi

if [ -n "$COLOR" ]; then
    xsetroot -solid $COLOR
fi
# --- 8< ------------------------------------

and with it, problem seems to disappear.

This seems to have been reported upstream for icewm and also to Ubuntu
launchpad.

Possible upstream bug report:

  http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100031&aid=3289566&group_id=31

Possible Ubuntu launchpad bug report:

I do not think gnome-settings-daemon is causing this bug report, just
triggering it, because it calls either 'pcmanfm --desktop' or 'icewmbg'. 

I am more inclined to reassign this bug report to 'xserver-xorg-core', since
is the common link between 'pcmanfm --desktop' and 'icewmbg' that has been
upgraded just prior to the problem. 

Also, this bug report may have the same origin as 

  http://bugs.debian.org/626774 (crash on loading background image)

because of the look of both Xorg errors (see below for mine).

I am cc'ing Debian X maintainers to know what they think.

More aditional information from my side:

These are the .xsession-error messages for the failing icewm-session
invocation from wdm (lines with AMD-WARNING are extra info I requested).
Related info for failed login in IceWM from gnome is given by Sergio Cipolla
in message http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=626331#5

and details about the Xorg failure in Xorg log file (same as I gave in
unrelated #612681). Note that this looks not very different from that reported
in #626774 (crash on loading background image),
