Verified on Feisty that removing --exec makes it work. Additionally, the
--oknodo argument to start-stop-daemon makes the script return success
even if it did not kill gdm.

I guess start-stop-daemon should just ignore the --exec argument when
--stop is present? At least not just ignore everything and quit.

OTOH if this is expected behavior from start-stop-daemon, many init
scripts must be fixed.

** Changed in: gdm (Ubuntu)
Sourcepackagename: gdm => dpkg
