The root cause turned out to be at-spi2 breakage. Again.

I don't want this to come across the wrong way, but this:

really doesn't make me happy. See caillon's comment starting "Note that
in order to get things working, one needs to disable a11y" - which makes
it clear that he knows, unless you manually disable a feature by using
an arcane command or by removing a package, GNOME will fail to run at
all...yet he gives the update +1 karma? This really isn't how the update
approval system is supposed to work. If you (corporate 'you', Fedora
desktop team) know about such a critical bug, you should fix it and edit
the update. Unless this gets fixed soon, we are in a state where anyone
who installs the Alpha and does an update will find their system
apparently utterly broken (it boots to a crashing gdm and if you boot to
'runlevel 3' and do startx, GNOME fails to run). I know we're in early
pre-release state and we don't guarantee anything, but it doesn't really
excuse submitting and then pushing to 'stable' code you know to be badly
broken.
