 Log Message:
 Fixes to XDM login handling:
 
 1) PR xsrc/32603 xdm w/ pam_krb5 fails to store tickets
 
    The pam_setcred call was inside an #ifndef HAS_SETUSERCONTEXT block.
    What that feature was recently disabled, I stopped getting tickets on
    xdm login. Move pam_setcred block outside of and before that block.
    (I believe pam_setcred needs to happen before anyway, as it
    expects to still be root when called)
 
 2) PR xsrc/31376 xdm loses environment settings from PAM
 
    Setting environment variables from pam needs to happen after
    pam_setcred, since environment variables may be set there
    (and are, by pam_krb5)
 
 3) no PR, mentioned on lists: default path changed
 
    the setusercontext code was setting the path always, even if no
    path was configured in login.conf, so xdm's default path was
    always overwritten, even if only by _PATH_DEFPATH.
 
    Now login.conf paths should be used if explicitly set, but xdm's
    default path will be used otherwise.
