Please keyword x11-apps/sessreg.
Added ~alpha keyword.

Done on hppa.
I have the same in xdm.log: /usr/lib/X11/xdm/GiveConsole: line 11: /usr/bin/sessreg: No such file or directory emerging sessreg fixed my problem with x11-apps/xdm-1.0.3-*, x11-apps/xdm-1.0.4 and I can get my session through xdm again.
Ping ia64, s390, xdm is totally broken on your archs until sessreg is keyworded.
Keywording appears to be done.
