It really needs to be CLEARLY documented, but a fair number of
knobs in login.conf don't actually do anything (yet).
As far as I know, only the limits and environment variables
actually have any effect, and the latter don't work even in the
"login.conf aware" version of xdm, or at least *I* can't get them
to work.
