Sorry I somehow missed the question.  In Debian we still ship the patch,
but I'll try without and report back.

Title:
  xf86OpenConsole: setpgid failed

Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: lightdm

  Oneiric i386 on nvidia (xorg-edgers)

  got logged into xorg.log:

   xf86OpenConsole: setpgid failed: Operation not permitted
   xf86OpenConsole: setsid failed: Operation not permitted

  i've found similar issue reported but against xdm/slim/wdm: Bug #585853 
  #19 post seems to point the real problem:
  - This appears to be caused by the lightdm package not integrating with upstart.
  - The plymouth process which holds the console open is waiting for a signal that the lightdm job is starting up, so that it can let go of the console; but the lightdm package doesn't have an upstart job, so there's no signal sent, which means the plymouth and lightdm processes are fighting over the console.

  Note: need to check that the above comments are correct
