	So I've finally looked at fixing this. Way to go me :/

	Attached is a simple fix ... although, I'm worried that components that
don't use libgnomeui will balk at the --sm-disable parameter ... will
they, or will they just ignore it ? I couldn't find anything to try it
out on.

	The alternative is to add GNOME_CLIENT_PARAM_SM_CONNECT, FALSE to all
gnome_program_inits for all components. No problem with doing that for
applets, but looking at libbonoboui its not as straighforward as we need
to know whether its a factory that's being initialised or whether its
just a normal application (which should be session managed).

	Thoughts ?

Good Luck,
Mark.
