Hello,
Works for me on Ubuntu 14.04 i386.
It allows me to cancel Shutdown, Reboot and Close session.
FYI, close the session then log in allows this change to take effect.

Title:
  Since revision 446.1.3, Zenity backend is broken

Status in Ubuntu GNOME Flashback:
  Fix Released
Status in indicator-session package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in indicator-session source package in Trusty:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Currently the code in zenity_question() looks like:

  if (!g_spawn_check_exit_status (exit_status, &error))
        confirmed = TRUE;
  else
        confirmed = exit_status == 0;

  However !g_spawn_check_exit_status() call is mostly equivalent to
  "exit_status != 0". Thus, confirmed will be *always* set to TRUE, even
  if the user cancelled the dialog.

  I have prepared a branch to fix this.

  == Impact ==
  The Cancel buttons in shutdown/end session dialogs are not working, and do the same as "OK" buttons. This may lead to data loss due to unsaved documents/etc.

  == Test Case ==
  * Log in to GNOME Flashback session.
  * Select "Shutdown" from indicator-session menu.
  * In the popped up dialog select "Cancel".

  Expected result: the dialog will close, the machine won't shut down.

  == Development / Stable Fix ==
  Please see the attached branches.

  == Regression Potential ==
  The fix is part of 14.10 release and was confirmed to work fine. So no regression potential.
