Research direction
Start by reproducing the GNOME 45.1 X11 setup with uutils replacing GNU coreutils, using the reported multi-display failure as the test case. Compare behavior with GNU coreutils to identify the responsible utility or command; done means isolating the incompatibility and verifying that GDM works with multiple displays.
