Yes, g_debug() output should show up in lightdm.log. It's
proabably better to run lightdm manually through dbx and then
just step through the code.
You could also set xserver-command= in lightdm.conf to a script
that wraps the X server binary with DTrace and checks whether
SIGUSR1 is emitted by the X server.

If you mean process.c:process_class_init(), that should be called
when a process object is instantiated by
g_object_new(PROCESS_TYPE, NULL) in process.c:process_new().
