I am surpised you see it being run after autostart... Start mate-session with --debug and look for "MsmGnome" in the log to see when it is run.The "clobbering" could be disabled via gconf in GNOMEv2 and I am pretty sure there is something similar possible by manipulating with dconf-editor.There is no way to disable it atm other than removing gnome-keyring. The reason it is run this way is that MATE relies on gnome-keyring/libsecret instead of the forked 2.32 versions. And as gnome-keyring does not export the env variables we run gnome-keyring which outputs the variables that mate-session then exports them before autostarting the wm, desktop etc etc.. Attached is a preliminary patch that uses a gsettings key to determine which parts of the gnome compat should be started. Modify the list in gnome-compat-startup and remove the 'keyring' value. This should stop the "clobbering" of the variables. ~infirit
I have tested infirit's patch and it seems to work, at least for the gnome-keyring part.
I could not manage to find gnome-smproxy in Debian, so I presume that part of the switch is useless, but relevant to other distros, probably.
I will proceed with retrieving an unblock confirmation for planned upload of mate-session-manager 1.8.1-6 which will fix this issue.
