Subject:   root's .xsession invalid after a clean install (2.1.5)

I've discovered that, after a clean install, root's home
directory has a .xsession in it.

That's all well and good.

Unfortunately, the last line of this .xsession is:

	exec fvwm

Well... fvwm isn't installed yet (it's a package, I suppose).
So, you can't log on as root if your running xdm.

Perhaps, for the released root directory this should be
simply twm, or you shouldn't have a .xsession at all.
