Strange. My wdm Xsession script is really pared down
from what I'm used to seeing on other systems:

$ cat /etc/X11/wdm/Xsession 
#!/bin/sh

# This is an Xsession wrapper for use with wdm to take
care of the
# handling of the 'NoChange' window manager selection
option.

if [ $# -eq 1 ] ; then
  echo $1 >$HOME/.wm_style 
  shift 
fi



exec /etc/X11/Xsession `cat $HOME/.wm_style` $@
$
