2.8.0.1 stuff:

- This release fixes a nasty bug which was causing the
  /etc/gdm/Xsession file to always use /bin/ksh.  This
  caused problems on Linux, where it should be /bin/sh.
  It now is only /bin/ksh on Solaris builds.  (Brian
  Cameron)

- seteuid/setegid logic in the GDM slave logic has been
  made more sane.  This was causing problems running GDM2
  on NetBSD (refer to bug #301821).  (Julio M. Merino Vidal)

- Minor correction to Solaris audit logic.  (Gary Winiger)

- Updated autogen.sh so it now works with automake > 1.4.

- No longer use C99 features that do not work with gcc 2.95,
  specifically do not declare variables except at the
  beginning of a block.  (Jens Granseuer)

- Corrected configure script so it works with pkgconfig
  0.17.2.  The new pkgconfig broke the build on Solaris
  since it no longer allows the linker to pull in libraries
  that are implicitely included.  Now all libraries are
  explicit.

- References to libgnome removed from vicious-extensions,
  so it no longer depends on libgnome.  It now depends
  directly on i18n libraries.  (Andrew Case)

- The gesture listeners now log debug messages to syslog
  instead of stdout, and debug can now be turned on by
  setting the GDM_DEBUG_GESTURES environment variable
  rather than needing to recompile with debug.  This makes
  it much easier to debug issues.  (Brian Cameron)

- Leaks fixed (Kjartan Maraas)

- Corrections to docs (Andrew Case, Martin Petersen)
