I guess we'll have tofind another way, because this still doesn't work.
I moved nvidia out of the way (sudo apt-get remove nvidia-glx,
nano /etc/modules to comment out the line pre-loading nvidia,
nano /etc/X11/XF86config-4 to load the nv driver instead), the xserver
still starts (it did start with nvidia also), but gdm dies with the same
error message.

Seeing it seemed to have something to do with libc6, i downgraded libc6
and libc6-686 to 2.3.2.ds1-13ubuntu2, but gdm keeps dying.

I also tried booting an older kernel, but in vain. the X server starts,
but the gdm session dies. Unless my nvidia cleansing is incomplete, I
don't know if we can still assume this bug is nvidia-related.
