I think I've solved the problem.  I got a crucial hint here:

http://fedora.1344471.n2.nabble.com/Is-Gnome-windown-manager-switching-
broken-again-td1394329.html

1. I went into gconf and changed /desktop/gnome/session/required-
components/windowmanager from "metacity" to "sawfish".

2. I created a file /usr/share/applications/sawfish.desktop by copying
the file metacity.desktop from the same directory and changing
"metacity" to "sawfish" wherever it appeared.

I'm not sure whether this is exactly right, but it seems to work for me.
