>does running gnome-settings-daemon by hand after the startup works
fine?

yes. Following lines are written in the console:
Rrdb:  "*Label.background" on line 243 overrides entry on line 170
xrdb:  "*Text.background" on line 249 overrides entry on line 211
xrdb:  "*Label.foreground" on line 255 overrides entry on line 171
xrdb:  "*Text.foreground" on line 261 overrides entry on line 212
]


>does running gnome-session from a debug session displays anything useful on the command line?

First, I get following line in the console:
SESSION_MANAGER=local/pointerouge:/tmp/.ICE-unix/4816

Then the top-left gray square appears. Nothing new in the console.

Finally, few minutes later, the desktop appears and I get these lines in the console:

------------------------------------

After this step, I started gnome-settings-daemon, but it failed a bug-
buddy opened a new report (see attachment).
