I am unable to reproduce even with startx.  I have the following in my
.xinitrc:

exec ck-launch-session gnome-session

GNOME comes up.  It's slow to start since gnome-panel cannot contact
GDM, but I get working applets, and my workspace switcher works.  At
this point, I would advise those seeing a problem to open a bug (or
bugs) with GNOME Bugzilla.
