- Various InitialSetup fixes
- ignore pam info messages for automatic logins
- unlock fixes
- user switching fix on consolekit systems
- be more robust against empty user shells/home dirs
- create program session log file as root instead of after setuid
- properly reload gdm.schemas on SIGHUP

[TESTCASE]

 * Just verify that logging in and out still works, particularly with GNOME 
Shell
 * Also check user switching

[Regression Potential]

The Ubuntu GNOME Remix (& similar unofficial flavors) should be the only
thing using GDM these days. It's pretty critical if GDM works but there
are several fixes included in this upload including a fix for bug
1055359 which has a high number of duplicates and could lead to data
loss if gdm is not running on :0.
