What about starting X for rhgb on a different vt, say vt8, as server :1?
Then *DM start X on vt7, server :) as normal. Once rhgb sees gdm up it 
shuts down.

How many people use multiple servers? How many of them would use rhgb?

My guess is most people who use multiple Xservers wouldn't care to use 
rhgb, not that there are many that use multiple servers anyway.

Perhaps a config setting for rhgb in that case, to use a different 
vt/server? Parsing the correct *DM config files seams overkill. If 
you're ready to configure multiople servers in *DM, you should know 
enought to configure rhgb too.
