Interesting; can you attach gdb to the zombie metacity to see what it is doing
when it is hung there ?

I suspect the main-loop is not running, and thus we don't get the signal down
the pipe to the main-loop, that then doesn't call exit.

Another query is - wtf. are we running metacity etc. as user 'gdm' in the
first-place, this can only make 'auto-login' horribly slow as we create two
sessions instead of one ? - I thought we had fixed this [ at least in
Moblin:Factory/gdm we have a patch to make autologin ~instant with no
intervening WM ].

Thanks.
