I'm still not able to reproduce this problem locally.

There are two patches that may be causing this problem:
09_close_pipes.patch and 11_quit_timeout.patch (the others seem unlikely
to have caused a problem like this).

What would be very useful is if someone who is reproducing the problem can:
- Try building a package without either of the above patches and see which one 
is causing the problem. The packaging is in 
lp:~robert-ancell/lightdm/1.2.3-0ubuntu2.6 and can be built with 
bzr-buildpackage.
- Try building from lp:lightdm/1.2 with bzr-buildpackage. This contains more 
patches not SRU'd - perhaps one of these fixes this loop?
- Use gdb to find where in lightdm it is looping

More detailed instructions for building locally:
$ bzr branch lp:~robert-ancell/lightdm/1.2.3-0ubuntu2.6 lightdm-lp1431654
$ sudo apt-get build-dep lightdm
$ cd lightdm-lp1431654
(disable patches in debian/patches)
$ bzr-buildpackage
$ sudo dpkg -i ../build-area/lightdm_1.2.3-0ubuntu2.6_amd64.deb 
../build-area/liblightdm-gobject-1-0_1.2.3-0ubuntu2.6_amd64.deb
