Hi,

I made a fresh 5.0-RELEASE install today and have made some more notes 
about the
problem.

a) After install of all of the gnome packages on the CD I noticed that 
the gdm uid/gid had
    not been created and added to /etc/{passwd,group}.
b) The gdm2 package from the CD had been installed.
c) In order to get gdm running I needed to chown and chmod the relevant 
directories.

Subsequently, I patched up a gdm2 port directory and followed your 
testing instructions.
Your patch isn't quite right however, the ${PKG_PREFIX} variable is not 
defined when the
chmod/chown commands are executed (I could see on the console that make 
tried to chown
/etc/gdm for instance).
