Yes, please do that.  gdm thinks the path of the X server
is /usr/X11R6/bin, when in fact it hasn't been there for a while.  There
is code to convert & copy old gdm config files in the spec, but it seems
that code hasn't triggered for us to update
the /usr/share/gdm/custom.conf to the correct X loction.
