	Well, I managed to capture the [f]printf'd message.  This was
	clearly to stdout, not stderr:

Updating KDM configuration
Information: reading current kdmrc /usr/local/share/config/kdm/kdmrc (from kde >= 2.2.x)
Information: current kdmrc is from kde >= 3.1 (config version 2.3)


	This is with no /var/run/kdm.pid; if that file of zero-length 
	inode entry is present, kdm yelps.  Either way, nothing happens.
	No entry into the KDE environment.
