Shouldn't this bug be broadened a bit? Allowing .xsession-errors to grow
indefinitely without any kind of log rotation in place is a design flaw.
The file should be rotated and old files compressed. A gzipped >5GiB log
file takes up about 20MiB on disk.

Attaching a gzipped log file which repeats, among other things, the
string "Authentication deferred - ignoring client message" about 110000
times a second towards the end. Something else is repeated loads of
times somewhere in the middle as well. This should not be allowed to
happen.
