Notes:
* Create a new user, log in the first time (no autologin) -> creates
"login" keyring and "User Keys" password entry
After every action below, log out and back into GNOME:
* Remove "User Keys" password entry -> no change, "User Keys" is not
regenerated
* Remove entire "Passwords: login" keyring -> "Passwords: login" keyring is
recreated, but not "User Keys"
* rm .gnome2/keyrings/login.keyring -> "Passwords: login" keyring is recreated
(and login.keyring file), but not "User Keys"
* rm .gnome2/keyrings/{login.keyring,user.keystore} ->"Passwords: login"
keyring is recreated with "User Keys"
* Remove "User Keys" password entry and rm .gnome2/keyrings/user.keystore ->
"User Keys" password is recreated
Logging into a VT and starting gnome-keyring-daemon by hand does not
recreate user.keystore, so it really seems to be pam_gnome_keyring.so.
