- Added xfs.init-fc4-startearly.patch to patch xfs.init to start earlier
in
   the boot process for gdm early login on FC4 builds.  This is done to the
   RPM_BUILD_ROOT installed file to ensure the changes do not get 
checked into
   CVS for the master initscript accidentally.


This should help out a bit.  ;)
