OpenBSD reverted that commit, so it's not a blocker for gnome-session
unlike mutter where ConsoleKit2 support didn't exist.

FreeBSD Foundation can probably sponsor something like
https://codeberg.org/SoftBSD/complexd but... ConsoleKit2 already
works and has some C API compatibility even if GPL-licensed.
