#3322: Mythwelcome spuriously quits under session management

 If, under gnome on Ubuntu Edgy, you start mythwelcome and it immediately
 starts mythfrontend, then several minutes (or hours) later quit the front
 end, mythwelcome will also immediately quit.  I have tracked this down to
 the way session management works -- mythwelcome opens the session manager
 connection, but because it is running mythfrontend, never services the
 socket.  So the initial SAVE_STATE message times out, which gnome-session
 responds to by removing mythwelcome from the session.  When mythfrontend
 quits, mythwelcome receives a "die" callback as soon as it services the
 socket, and dutifully quits.

 One workaround is to run mythwelcome without session management,
