I don't use gdm, but my guess is that this is related to bug #240980. According to the bug report gdm changed where it gets session types from in version 2.4.4.x. 2.4.4.7-1 was accepted into unstable on March 29. Before that, 2.4.1.7-1 was the version in unstable. So, this is probably the cause of your problem. Downgrading gdm to the version in testing (2.4.1.7-1) would probably fix this for you, without you having to reinstall anything.
