Here you are. The information you asked is at the end of xsession-errors.
Please note that I did find gnome-settings-daemon started.
And that if I kill it, it will restart automatically.
I found no better way than to "kill -9; gnome-settings-daemon"
First time I did this, my session was killed, maybe my mistake.
Later, I received a message saying that g-s-d had restarted too many times.
In the confusion, I forgot --debug :-(

Tell me if you find what you need.
Else, what exactly I must do to help.

Thanks too for the marvelous job you do.
