Public bug reported:

Perhaps this bug should be filed against gnome-session rather then
gnome-session-canberra, but anyway:
The file /etc/X11/Xsession.d/55gnome-session_gnomerc contains:

          # If we are running the GNOME session, source ~/.gnomerc
          
          BASESTARTUP=`basename "$STARTUP" | cut -d\  -f1`
          if [ "$BASESTARTUP" = gnome-session -o \
                  \( "$BASESTARTUP" = x-session-manager -a \
                  "`readlink /etc/alternatives/x-session-manager`" = \
                          /usr/bin/gnome-session \) ]; then
            GNOMERC=$HOME/.gnomerc
            if [ -r "$GNOMERC" ]; then
              . "$GNOMERC"
            fi
          fi

So if the user is using gnome-session-canberra, then the user's .gnomerc
file is not sourced. Perhaps this is by design; but I think the purpose
of gnome-session-canberra was to omit the Ubuntu-specific modifications,
not the user-specific modifications.
