I have applied the patch, but I am seeing a very strange problem.

I am using vnc sessions with gdm / xdmcp enabled to allow persistent sessions 
in 10.10
It seems that gdm-simple-greeter is now hanging/crashing, depending on what is 
done.

a)
If I have a vnc session with display resolution set to 640x480, simple-greeter 
works and I can login.
However, if I click on my user name to login and then click cancel, 
simple-greeter segfaults.
(the segfault can be seen in /var/log/gdm/xxxxx-greeter.log)

b)
If I have a vnc session with a display resolution of, say, 800x600, 
simple-greeter hangs, and I cannot login at all.

In fact, the change in behavior it seems to be related to the x-dimension of 
the vnc session requested - if I set it to be 640x800, that will work just as 
in case a) above
Either way, both a and b either crash or hang.

I don't know if this issue is related to the patch or not as I applied the 
patch before setting up the vnc system.
I applied the i386 patch listed above to a 10.10 32bit install. (i686 from 
uname -a)

I would be interested to see if anyone else is seeing an issue with gdm-
simple-greeter, or if there is an alternative to it that I could try..
