Title:
  Connecting to GDM via XDMCP crashes it (GdmXdmcpDisplay shouldn't be
  abstract)

Status in gdm:
  Unknown
Status in gdm package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I've enabled XDMCP in GDM, and created an xinetd service for VNC via
  XDMCP.

  Any time I try to connect via VNC, gdm crashes, taking down the local display as well.
  After that, gdm won't start again until I kill the "orphaned" local display.

  It looks like the fix is a single-line change:
