This means your window manager is not session aware.  There's nothing
the session manager can do about this -- the problem is in your wm.

Logout will still work as long as gnome-session is the last thing run
in your .xinitrc.

You can also give gnome-session a list of programs to run every time
it starts up.  Use the session-properties program to do this.  For
instance, you could put a non-SM-aware window manager in this list.
