It seems that it is good to have an "overspecified"
/etc/gdm/custom.conf as I did not notice that something went
awry.  Of course that also means that I missed the bug. :-)

Seriously though.  At least for the time beeing you can
override wrong locations and commands in your custom.conf.
Whatever you will change will take a precedence over
/usr/share/gdm/defaults.conf, which you can use as a source
of patterns,  and gdm will start working again.

To fix the problem I had to first 'chmod +w
/usr/share/gdm/defaults.conf' as root and then replace all instances
of '/usr/X11R6/bin' to '/usr/bin' in defaults.conf.  I have a
custom.conf as well but it's not overspecified.

Then it worked.  I guess the latest GDM rpm is borked then?
