Thanks Adam, I have filed a bug report here - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/1788739 and here https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=107841 Since the output refers to /usr/lib/gdm3/gdm-x-session I'm going to file a bug report on Gnome Bugzilla under gdm and see how that goes.
