Bug#576753: empty username and passwd cause crash
Package: xdm
Version: 1:1.1.9-1
Severity: wishlist
At the xdm login screen, typing just RET to both the username and
password prompts will cause xdm to crash.
It should just ask again.
Maybe it tries to restart itself instead, but does not succeed.
Maybe its crashing is intentional.
At least the unknown session exit code is wrong.
