gdm tells you you're already logged in, but that doesn't stop you
logging in again. it's purely informational.
In my case I wasn't able to login, but the system was in a screwy state
as I tried to get gdm restarted (so it would look at login.defs again)
and the previous instance wasn't completely dead. So it may not have been
being logged in on a vt that was really the problem.
