Description:
GDM fails to create ~/.Xautority
Tested on relatively clean system and with new user.

Also tried slim and gdm-old: both correctly create ~/.Xautority

Additional info:
gdm 2.30.2-2

Steps to reproduce:
Start gdm daemon, login.
stat ~/.Xauthority - it was not created/updated at login time.
switch to virtual console, launch:
DISPLAY=:0 some_gui_app - it will not be able to connect to running X server.
