I recall trying this fairly recently under KDE (Ubuntu Precise), and it
did not preserve the symlink. So it seems this needs to be fixed in kdm
as well.

Alex,
this would happen if ~/.xsession-errors is not a regular file, i. e.
symlink to a nonexisting file, or a pipe or something. So in your case
/dev/null is not S_ISREG, so it would fall back to creating a new file.

I can confirm that the version of gdm in lucid-proposed functions as
expected.
Specifically I tested that changing .xsession-errors to a symlink both
does not get overwritten and that the symlink destination gets created
if it does not exist.

Same here, tested gdm 2.30.2.is.2.30.0-0ubuntu5.2 from lucid proposed,
and it preserve .xsession-errors being a symlink across reboot and
session logout. Looks good to me!

The linked merge proposal will merge the lucid-proposed gdm branch into
the lucid-backports ditto. I have built (locally), installed and tested
the proposed branch successfully. It's also queued to be built at
https://launchpad.net/~gunnarhj/+archive/lang-backports.
