This was caused by a bug in my gdm-domain-logon.patch. An idle handler handle
was not being stored correctly when attached, so the idle handler was not being
removed. I suspected this, but didn't understand how an extra idle timeout
every 30 seconds could get so bad so fast. Unfortunately, the logic is such
that every time the callback is invoked, it is detached and then re-attached (a
state machine goes to last stage and back to first). Thus, without the detach,
the number of idle timeouts would *double* every 30 seconds, for as long as the
greeter was being displayed. Hilarity ensued.
I will attach the fixed patch and commit it to the build service, after which I
will proceed with ritual self-flagellation.
