The AI opinion is that the initial problem is the KDE keyring (?),
which it says is not properly linked in to DBus and the freedesktop
system.  I don't know.

The solution was to shift to the GNome keyring.  While starting it did
seem to create the sockets properly, it didn't set up environment
variables properly, so the script does both of those things.

AI thinks that keyring closes when the computer becomes idle (eg
overnight).  At the latest I'll know by tomorrow if that's right.  If
it does happen again I've got some stuff to do to try to clear that.
