Binary package hint: gdm

(split off from bug #196816)
On Ubuntu Hardy Heron, if an inbound ssh session (from another system) is 
active, a shutdown initiated from an XFCE session fails to shut down the system 
and instead returns to the login screen.  With a Gnome session the shutdown 
proceeds normally.  An outbound ssh session, from tty1 for example, does not 
inhibit the XFCE-initiated shutdown sequence.  

On Xubuntu Intrepid Ibex Alpha 2 this occurs with both XFCE and Gnome
(added via ubuntu-desktop).  Neither will shut down if an inbound ssh
session is active.

I can't see any differences in the logs between a Gnome-initiated
shutdown and an XFCE-initiated one.  The issue is 100% reproducible.

** Affects: openssh (Ubuntu)
