Since you're fortunate enough to have a terminal to start applications from, you
can just run gnome-session-properties, uncheck the "remember running
applications" option, then log out by running gnome-session-quit. On your next
login, things should be back to normal (but without session saving). If you
didn't have the terminal, the bug reports indicate how to fix things in general
by going to a VT and deleting a file. In the latter case, you'd still have to
run g-s-p to disable session saving afterwards, otherwise the same thing would
happen again on the next login.
