 Actually, now that I've edited away the noise for theses few lines
I suspect that the symlinks we make, derived from what we made for
gnome-2, are unnecessary.  Distros don't seem to do this.
I'm talking about

ln -fsv
$GNOME_PREFIX/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gnome-settings-daemon \
        $GNOME_PREFIX/lib/gdm &&
ln -fsv /usr/lib/ConsoleKit/ck-get-x11-display-device \
        $GNOME_PREFIX/lib/gdm &&
ln -fsv /usr/lib/polkit-gnome/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1 \
        $GNOME_PREFIX/lib/gdm

 The only references in the voluminous log to gnome-settings-daemon
are to gnome-settings-daemon.desktop.  Will try removing these in a
little while.
