A simple call to debhelper in debian/rules should suffice:

dh_installwm wm /usr/bin/gnustep-session

where gnustep-session file would contain something like that :

. /usr/lib/GNUstep/System/Library/Makefiles/GNUstep.sh
/etc/init.d/gdomap start
openapp gdnc
/etc/init.d/gnustep_sndd start
openapp gpbs
wmaker

But in wich package can we put this file ?
gnustep-back binary package ? no, because we should add a dependency 
to wmaker.
a new gnustep-session package in gnustep-back source package ? Why not 
?
in the gnustep meta-package ? maybe but It would be best to keep 
possibility to install the gnustep-session separatly.
A new gnustep-session source package ? okay for me.

If anyone find a better name than gnustep-session...
