gdm / X spontaneously restarts

Binary package hint: gdm

This just started after the latest gdm updates. The gdm / X session spontaneously restarts.

I am also reporting bug 535316, which started happening at the same time, and wondering if they might be related in terms of a random garbage to a VT causing gdm / X to restart.

See also bug 527721, although my X session is on TTY7.
