Well, the original patch for gdm I did first tried multi-user-x if it
was around, and then fell back to X itself. Thus, we can safely get
rid of multi-user-x without breaking gdm. However, we should do so
only after verifying that the per-seat magic that multi-user-x did is
now correctly and fully done by X itself.
