  1. gdm: Rebuild 3.4.1 for correct X server path

    Currently `/usr/X11R6` points to `/usr`.
    
    ```
    > ls -l /usr/X11R6
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root system 4 Jun 15 04:36 /usr/X11R6 -> /usr
    ```
    
    The GDM configure script, goes through all these paths, to determine the
    path for the X server binary.
    
    Therefore, remove the symbolic link, already done by removing
    XScreenSaver 5.11 with `sudo bee update xscreensaver`, and rebuild GDM,
    so that it picks up the binaries under `/usr/bin`.
    
    Another option would be, to hardcode the know paths as done in
    OpenEmbedded [1].
