When the new-login USE flag is turned on, the ebuild calls
"--with-login-manager" with no options, when it should call
--with-login-manager='/usr/bin/gdmflexiserver -ls'. Calling with no options
causes it to strip the default options that the configure script would have
set.
This bug manifests itself when users try to hit the "New Login" button on
another user's locked screen in an attempt to get a gdm login prompt. The
first user will succeed, but subsequent attempts will generate a "There are
some displays already open" dialog box BEHIND the locked screen, thus blocking
the login attempt.
This bug persists in all of the curren ebuilds including 5.00

configure to allow more users to login, when the screen is locked

I can't find anykind of documentation/mention of -s flag in gdmflexiserver.
Weird..
gdmflexiserver --help
...
-s, --startnew Start new flexible session; do not show popup
...
Fixed in 5.02-r1, thanks.
