I can confirm this bug has been around for a long time (at least since
8.28).  I suspect it to be related to the infamous "Xorg hangs when
logging out" (a.o. 418338, 400743, 402375, and 345040), which has been
plagueing us for nearly two years now.  Sigh[1].

I can work around the "hang at logout" bug by having GDM restart X at
each logout (by putting "AlwaysRestartServer=true" in the [daemon]
section of /etc/gdm/gdm.conf).  However, "New Login" still invariably
results in a hang. :-(

Best regards,
Marco

[1] Note: this sigh is not directed at Romain or Flavio.  They're doing
an excellent job.  Many kudo's to you two!  I just wish upstream would
*finally* fix that bug.
