Bug#422483: gdm: segfault after XDMCP chooser

[Sylvain Le Gall]

Package: gdm
Version: 2.18.1-2
Severity: important

Hello,

Well, i set severity to important because, it render the package useless
for me (but it only affects XDMCP related configuration, which is not
the most common way to use gdm).

My bug is as follow:
* i have a XEN configuration (dom0 = debian etch, X + vesa xserver)
* i use GDM in domU yocto (debian unstable, no X)
* in dom0: X -indirect yocto 
* in domU: i attach gdm.conf 
* i can see and choose yocto in the chooser screen of gdm (of yocto)
* once i try to connect to login screen of yocto, GDM segfault
* i have downgraded to 2.16.4 and it works again

I have a message in /var/log/gdm/:0.log
/etc/X11/X is not executable
