[Bug 78566] startup programs delayed for 2 minutes with compiz/beryl enabled

[Rouven Sacha]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-session

If i start gnome with beryl/compiz enabled from gdm with a .desktop that
calls one of the following scripts:

Either compiz:

#!/bin/sh

# Compiz startup script!

compiz --replace gconf &
gtk-window-decorator --replace &

exec gnome-session

or beryl

#!/bin/sh
exec beryl&
exec emerald &
#sleep 1
exec gnome-session 

All the programs that get invoked through gnome-session (update-
notifier, gossip, evo-a-n, g-p-m, bt-download, g-v-m --sm-disable,
beagled, nm-applet --sm-disable) startup with a delay of roundabout 2
minutes and evo-a-n  crashes (looks similar to #66860).

This happens on different edgy installations. gnome-session:
2.16.1-0ubuntu1
