Not a bug in pam.  We *explicitly* avoid restarting gdm in the libpam
postinst, instead calling /etc/init.d/gdm reload because gdm is one of the
few services that we can get a libpam reload of without having to restart
the daemon directly.  If '/etc/init.d/gdm reload' is causing gdm3 to
restart, that's unequivocally a bug in gdm3.
